Archie Bleyer
Archie Bleyer (June 12, 1909 - March 20, 1989) was an American song arranger, bandleader, and record company executive.
==Early life==
He was born Archibald Martin Bleyer in the Corona section of the New York City borough of Queens. His father was a well-known trumpet player who had played with the Metropolitan Opera.〔"Musician Archie Bleyer, Fired By Godfrey." Los Angeles Times, March 22, 1989, p. 20〕 Archie began playing the piano when he was only seven years old. In 1927 he went to Columbia College, intending to become an electrical engineer, but as a sophomore switched to a music major. Without graduating, he left to become an arranger.〔Andy Rooney, "Bleyer Was Musician's Musician." Marietta (GA) Journal, March 29, 1989, p 6〕 In the early 1930s, Bleyer wrote a number of songs that got recorded; all 'hot' novelty numbers, including "Mouthful O'Jam", "Business In F" and "Business In Q".
In 1934 he started leading a band of his own at Earl Carroll's club in Hollywood, California. Bleyer's orchestra recorded for Vocalion Records 1934 and in 1935 was moved to the ARC group of labels (Melotone, Perfect, Romeo, Oriole). One of the vocalists who worked with this orchestra was Johnny Mercer, who became better known as a songwriter and co-founder of Capitol Records.
