British Musician; Singer White Heterosexual Active in opera, oratorio and concerts, Dearth made more than 225 recordings. In 1916, he recorded "The Canadian Guns," a stirring tribute to the skill and audacity of Canadian gunnery units then helping enormously along the Western Front. His recording of "Leanin'" is the perfect embodiment of soulful indolence, and justly famous. He would often sing it on request in pubs he frequented in his later years. http://www.musicweb-international.com/hooey/olde_english.htm (2020) International Standard Archival Authority Record for Corporate Bodies, Persons and Families - ISAAR(CPF) 2nd edition - ICA 2004 ISBN 2-9521932-2-3 National Council on Archives, Rules for the Construction of Personal, Place and Corporate Names, 1997 Yes RAHhbryony 9/13/2012 Rachael.Fragola 3/1/2022 18b482c9-c679-4b1d-8f12-125eb1877b10
