![Shades of Night (1916) by Malvin M. Franklin [Sung by Elizabeth Spencer & Walter Van Brunt]
Malvin M. Franklin & Russian-born composer Anatol Friedland collaborate on this charming waltzy tone picture.
Lyrics by L. Wolfe Gilbert
Malvin M. Franklin (1889-1981) was a master of such tangos as Rio de Janeiro, but he was also an experienced rag artist. Hot Chocolate, and Elephant Rag are some of the said rags.

![Hindu Rose (1919) by Neil Morét [Sung by Joseph Phillips]
An oriental vamp from the time when songs of the Far East were popular.
Words by Louis Weslyn
Neil Morét was a ubiquitous pseudonym for Charles N. Daniels. Ragtime fans may recognize his name, as he was the arranger of Scott Joplins Original Rags. But he was an accomplished composer in his own right, too.
Hiawatha was certainly his most famous work, but others such as Borneo Rag, Margery, and I Think of Home and Mother When Its Christmas Time are also notable.
