Arthur Fields (August 6th 1888 - March 29th 1953) In late 1914 Fields began his recording career. He made his debut with Irving Berlin's "Along Came Ruth", a ballad interpolated into Holman Day's play of that name. The baritone recorded many songs of a topical nature during World War 1. In 1918, America suffered its heaviest casualties in Europe. Fields recorded mostly songs that reflected America's involvement in the European conflict. They were incredibly popular and remained available into the 1920s. A few were available as late as 1925. Fields recorded for all the major recorded companies including Columbia, Victor, Emerson, Aeolian-Vocalion, Edison Diamond Discs, Blue Amberol Cylinders and several others. He recorded many records with Fred Hall and his Assassinators starting in the mid 1920’s into the early 1930’s. Fields worked closely with Hall even on radio. From 1928 to 1932 Fields and musicians led by Hall often cut hillbilly material, some of it written by Fields and Hall. These were recorded under a variety of names used for novelty as well as hot dance records. He had been admitted to the nursing home after suffering a stroke on March 11 1953. Fields died in a fire on March 29, 1953, at the Littlefield Convalescent Home at Largo, Florida at age 64. The fire claimed about 33 residents. This 6 CD series includes a large selection of his popular and World War 1 songs recorded from 1914 to 1942. All selections in this series were digitally restored by Vintage Recordings.
