Dave Kohn
David "Dave" Kohn (fl. 1917–1922) was an American songwriter. He was best known for songs involving World War I and Prohibition.
His 1917 song "The Ocean Must Be Free", cowritten with Lew Flint, was published with the caption "Dedicated to the United States Army and Navy to encourage enlistment".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Ocean Must Be Free )〕 It was reviewed favorably by ''Billboard'': "The Ocean Must Be Free is an exceptionally good title for a song at the present time and the words and music are as good as the title." ''The Music News'' described it as, "a very attractive new song which has one of the best Patriotic texts yet noted." After the war, it was advertised in a 1919 issue of the trade publication ''National Farmer and Stock Grower'' as a "splendid international song...Our boys could not help fighting for it."
In 1918, Kohn wrote the lyrics and E.C. Penn wrote the music for the song "Right and Justice Must Everywhere Prevail". He also cowrote the lyrics to 1919's "Peace Reigns on Earth" with Carolyne Lamberton, music by Bert Keene and Ernest L. Walker.
In 1922, Kohn's song "Light Wine and Beer" (cowritten with George Vest Jr., music by Bert Keene) was taken up by the Anti-Prohibition Party and Association Against the Prohibition Amendment as their official song. An excerpt of it was later featured in a 1983 episode of Dr. Demento's radio show.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Dr. Demento Show #83-31 )〕
