[Sun Valley Trio] LaPrise, Larry. (1912–1996) & Macak, Charles P. & Baker, Tafft.. "The Hokey Pokey". New York: Bourne. 1950. Arrangement of the traditional song, originally a British folk dance, for voice and piano by the Sun Valley Trio. Quarto. 9 x 12 inches (30.5 x 22.6 cm). 6 pp.; 3 pages of music. The musicians of the Sun Valley Trio are depicted on the cover with their instruments and a reference to their recording, "Recorded by the Sun Valley Trio 4 Star Record No. 1505." Somewhat foxed, slightly bumped and creased but else in very good condition.
"LaPrise was born in Detroit, Michigan. He wrote 'Do The Hokey Pokey' in the early 1940s for the après-ski crowd at a club in Sun Valley, Idaho. The song was first recorded by his group the Ram Trio (on the record they're known as the Sun Valley Trio) (with Charles Macak and Tafft Baker) in 1948. They were awarded U.S. copyright in 1950. The authorship of the Hokey Pokey is disputed, with Irish songwriter Jimmy Kennedy having published the original 'Cokey-Coney' in 1942. Robert Degan sued LaPrise for copyright infringement of his 1946 'The Hokey-Pokey Dance'. They settled out of court." English Wikipedia, article "LaPrise, Larry."
