Babe Ruth is most recognized for his many record breaking accomplishments and for being a role model for any sport fanatic in the 1920s. He was known as the greatest player of the century. In 1919, he played for the Boston Red Sox and during that time set a record for the most scoreless innings in the World Series. Also during that time with the Red Sox, he hit 29 home runs, which was a new record. In 1920, he went and played with the New York Yankees. In his career, he set many records some of which were hitting 60 home runs in a year.

The phonograph record became the primary method of disseminating music, surpassing sales of sheet music and piano rolls. The music industry, ever keen to discover new ways of making profits, realized that record, sheet music and piano roll sales could all be tied together. The “song plugger” was born: a person who worked to make sure his company’s tunes would be performed by dance bands or by singers, live and on records, ever hopeful of a “hit.” Fletcher Henderson, Louis Armstrong, and willy The Lion Smith were 3 out of 10 most famous jazz musicians that ever lived. ]]> 2017-02-21 02:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/1007049/291qj6zkr7pm/wish/155047129 1007049 https://padlet.com/1007049/291qj6zkr7pm/wish/155048365 Warren Harding
