"Billy Mayerl, as pianist-composer-celebrity-educator, was one of the most brilliant figures in British music from the 1920s to the 1950s. Born in London, he became known in childhood as the Wonder Boy Pianist playing for silent films and was captivated by American popular music. With the Savoy Havana Band, he made an immediate impact in the earliest days of broadcasting and was known as the pianist with the lightning fingers." "This book - which contains a full CD of Mayerl's historic playing - is the first detailed study of his work and should ensure a permanent place for Mayerl and his music."--Jacket.
