Irving Berlin

Israel Isidore Beilin American composer and lyricist, born 11 May 1888 in Tyumen, Russian Empire (today Russia) and died 22 September 1989 in New York City, New York, USA. Due to Berlin's popularity, his name would be put on the front cover for marketing purposes when artists covered his works. It was just an overly flashy credit that normally would have been on the back like most composers'. Do not list him as a lead artist unless you're 100% sure that it's not a cover. Inducted into Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970.
