The songs that Billy Murray popularized are classic American tunes, from "Meet Me in St. Louis, Louis" to "Give My Regards to Broadway," and from "Harrigan" to "K-K-K-Katy (Stammering Song)." You'll notice that a number of the songs were composed by George M. Cohan: more than any other recording artist of the early industry, Murray was the primary interpreter of the now-famous songs of Cohan, the original "Yankee Doodle Boy."
