Thanks Bruce and Roger for the heads up, I've been truly enjoying
this movie.

Doc Pomus was born Jerome Felder, 1925, in Brooklyn NY, the son
of Jewish immigrants.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doc_Pomus

Felder became a fan of the blues after hearing a Big Joe Turner
record, "Piney Brown Blues" from 1940.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSYRA5f3kQQ

Stage name 'Doc' came from Jerome Felder's liking
for black blues singer, Doctor Clayton:
(1st recording 1930, but most recordings 1941-1946)
Doctor Clayton discography:
https://www.wirz.de/music/claytond.htm

Doctor Clayton - "Gotta Find My Baby" [Bluebird B8901] - 1941
the stand out piano is played by Blind John Davis
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpfUhKi_ldk

Doctor Clayton playlist for 1935-1942 (24 tracks):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNgFfrz_Wvk&list=OLAK5uy_lz31rFG1Hf_faZD0FOHugfUzRbo8XKG2E
{Diane might be interested?}

'Pomus' was decided on while traveling in a subway with a cousin
- they were foolin' around with different sounding names and 'Pomus'
sounded right, like a black cat from Georgia or something.

"as a Jew with polio, he felt a special underdog kinship with African
Americans"

{frankly, I think you can leave out 'with polio' to account for many
Hebrews born in the 1940s and 50s having an affinity for R&B}

others:

Watching the movie now, it is excellent. Here's one from 1955 that features Doc Palmer on vocal. It was bought up by RCA but never went anywhere after thy realized that Doc Palmer was Doc Pomus, a 31 year old Jewish guy. They thought they were getting a young black guy with a big future.
