Little Creole Boy (1918)
Aleksandr Vertinskii. Sung by the author
Description: Vertinsky first met starlet Vera Kholodnaia at the Khazhankov Film Studio. Rumor has it that he fell madly in love with her 'demonic beauty,' and that he was the source of her meteoric success. Several of his early songs were dedicated to her, none more famous than this.
