| Description |
English: The popularity of songs about cities prompted the Young Men's Business Club of Seattle to commission local composer Harold Taylor Weeks to write a song for Seattle. Weeks had already gained a national reputation for a number of hits, including his popular 1918 jazz song "Hindustan," which he wrote with future Oscar winner Oliver George Wallace (1887-1963). The Seattle Times reported that the composer delivered the manuscript for "Seattle Town" by motorcycle to the club members at their hotel luncheon inside the Gowman Hotel Cafe. "Seattle Town" was published by the Young Men's Business Club of Seattle, and printed by Scholz, Erickson & Company, San Francisco. Paul Arno designed the cover, showing a ship sailing past Smith Tower and the Seattle waterfront. Caption information source: The Seattle Daily Times, July 29, 1923.
