"Crazy Rhythm," sheet music of a song, with lyrics written by Irving Caesar, and music by Joseph Meyer and Roger Wolfe Kahn, published by Harms Incorporated, 1928. The cover has the title in white letters with thick black borders at the top. The composers' names are below and to the right. At the bottom, just right of center, is the publisher's name. The brightly colored image is of a silhouetted couple dancing next to a large arched window, thorugh which is a city skyline. A series of red, pink, gray, and orange beams with triangular notches on some cut across the image, like spotlights. On the back is an advertisement for more sheet music offered by the publisher and more advertising is on the inside front and back covers. The score for the song, subtitled "Danny and Cora" is in the tempo of allegretto moderato and is scored for piano. A stamped name of a previous owner is at the lower right of the front cover. With abraded, creased, and dented corners, slight paper discoloration, and light stains at the top of the back, the artifact is in good condition.Lexicon
