Ol' Man River Jules Bledsoe

Doing a theme this week, songs about rivers. Ol' Man River
was written for the 1927 musical Showboat which was based on a 1926
novel of the same title by Edna Ferber.
Jerome Kern wrote the music and Oscar Hammerstein II lyrics. Showboat is still performed on stages. Jules Bledsoe played Joe on Broadway and here we have him reprising
that role in the 1929 movie of Showboat.
