By Carl Brisson. Composed by Arthur Johnston and Sam Coslow. Arranged by Timothy Stapay. This edition: pdf, streaming. Broadway, Film/TV, Jazz, Musical/Show, Pop, Standards. Score. 6 pages. Timothy Stapay #764321. Published by Timothy Stapay (A0.1163967).
This arrangement of "Cocktails For Two" is written as performed by the famous cocktail pianist, Bill Snyder.
William P. Snyder (November 7, 1916 – Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, May 11, 2011) was an American pianist, bandleader and songwriter of the 1950s.
Snyder studied under Moriz Rosenthal in Paris and served in the Air Force during the Second World War. Snyder first had a massive hit with Lorenz Hart's "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" in 1950. The song reached the top position on the Cash Box list of "The Nation's Top Ten Juke Box Tunes." Through the 1950s, Snyder was America's most recorded light music pianist with nine gold and one platinum awards for his singles and albums.
"Cocktails for Two" is a song from the Big Band era, written by Arthur Johnston and Sam Coslow. The song debuted in the movie Murder at the Vanities (1934), where it was introduced by the Danish singer and actor Carl Brisson. Duke Ellington's version of the song was recorded in 1934 and was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2007.
The song alludes to Repeal, the ending of Prohibition in the United States. The introduction begins with:
Oh what delight to
Be given the right to
Be carefree and gay once again.
No longer slinking,
Respectably drinking
Like civilized ladies and men.
