Well, I liked it a lot. Good modulation level and nice bit of 'needle talk' at the end (cold wax or scurf not removed from needle). Typical technical challenges of the time! Thanks very much.

_Fiesta_ gave bands trouble because the rumba was so new, and in any case, it really wasn't _written_ as a rumba. The minor strain had a dotted 8th note feel that didn't lie well over a rumba beat. Star mostly plays it straight fox trot (which is what most bands ended up doing).

I had this record in the 60s. I was a nostalgia geek and LOVED Debroy Summers as being the epitome of the 20s. Closely followed by The Savoy Orpheans. I believe a revival of The Desert Song was still going strong at The Palace Theatre starring John Hansen

John Hanson made a career from touring with The Desert Song, The Studen Prince, and The Vagabond King. I remember seeing him walking with a female on either arm to the theatre in my home town in the 1960s - blackened hair, a hint of make-up, built-up shoes, and a camel coat worn like a cload one the shoulders.

The augmented 'Al Benny's Broadway Boys' incarnation of Bidgood's studio band produced a wonderful sound, enhanced by being away from Vocalion's dull recording studio and in the King George's Hall of the YMCA on Tottenham Court Road. Harry did wonderful arrangements. It must have been a blow to him when the Vocalion Gramophone Co Ltd sold its business (and debts) to Crystalate where Jay Wilbur was the popular music director . . . and Harry had to turn to accordion bands!

SO that explains why Octacros stopped in 1937 :-) and how Decca ended up with the masters.
@6dBperOctave 4 ай бұрын
Actually, my account does not explain about Octacros, which was not connected with Vocalion/Broadcast or Crystalate. Octacros is another story. The Hertford Mead Works record factory was opened by Fonotipia in 1913, acquired by Columbia during WW1 and the history goes on. In 1928 it was sold by Columbia to Metropole/Piccadilly. They went bust and the factory was acquired in 1934 by Synchrophone makers of Octacros. The record inductry was contracting and, to cut the story short, Decca bought the factory and contents in 1937 simply to shut it down and take capacity out of the record industry. The full account is in my article 'From Metropole to Synchrophone to Emergency Ward 10' in Memory Lane issue 204 Autumn 2019. A revised version was in For the Record No.88 Winter 2023 under the title 'Metropole, the Highbury Athenaeum and the Mead Works'.

Thank you: I try. It helps that this is not a studio recording. The Vocalion Gramophone Co Ltd's studio, off Gray's Inn Road in London, produced a dull and boxy sound. They also made regular use of King George's Hall in the YMCA on Tottenham Court Road (demolished around 1970) - particularly for classical repertoire and military bands. Bidgood's augmented studio bands (e.g. Al Benny's Broadway Boys) often used the Hall; and it certainly made a difference to the sound.

The Raderman responsible for the recording of "I'm Knee Deep In Daisies" is actually the laughing trombonist Harry Raderman (brother of Lou Raderman, Dave Raderman & Max Raderman and also cousin to Nathan Glantz and his nephew Harry Glantz, as well as the father of alto saxophonist Oscar Raderman (aka Ozzie Ray)), whose band recorded prolifically from 1919 to 1927 for Okeh, Edison, the NYRL group (including Paramount, Puritan, etc.), Emerson (as the Plantation Jazz Orchestra), etc. Billy West is Billy Jones under a pseudonym here (although there was a real Billy West who appeared in many silent movies, and don't forget voice actor Billy West (who voiced Woody Woodpecker, Popeye, Bugs Bunny, etc.)). The personnel for the Raderman side is: Harry Raderman (tb) dir: Julius Berkin, another (tp), Oscar Raderman (cl,as,ss), Jules Nassberg (cl,ts,ss), ?Henry Scharf (p), Harry Reser (bjo), Ken Snell (bb), Billy Wynne (d) & Billy Jones [as BILLY WEST] (v). And actually, research by Vince Giordano points out that the Manhattan Dance Makers sides from 1925 to 1928 were actually made by alto saxophonist Nathan Glantz's Orchestra (think of Fletcher Henderson's sides as the Dixie Stompers for Columbia's budget labels Harmony, Diva, Velvet Tone, etc.), and by listening to these, I absolutely agree that it's Glantz's group rather than Selvin (who of course recorded from 1925 to 1929 for Harmony as the Harmonians, and a host of other pseudonyms (which he also shared with Lou Gold, the California Ramblers, etc.) that later came on such as Barney Trimble and his Oklahomans, Jerry Mason's Californians, etc.). The personnel for "Just Around The Corner" is in this case: Nathan Glantz (as,ts,ss,cl,bcl) dir: Andy Bossen (tp [he soloes on minutes 5:55 to 6:12 and leads the band back home from minute 6:21 to the end]), Jack Stillman (tp,arr), Eph(riam) Hannaford (tb), Ken "Goof" Moyer (cl,as,ts,bars,ss), unknown (p), Harry Reser (bjo), unknown (bb) & unknown (d). Thanks for sharing these jewels from whom I'll never get tired of listening in my whole life!

Why did some of the 78s have stamps on? I have some like that as well. Never seen a 45 or 33 with stamps on though.
@6dBperOctave Жыл бұрын
They are stamps showing that a royalty (a fee) has been paid to the music publisher for using the music. It was a percentage of the retail price of the record. In the case of the record above it was "1d" - i.e. one old penny. 'Don't Bring Lulu' the publisher was Francis, Day & Hunter who got a penny for that record above. 'If You Knew Susie' was Keith Prowse who got another penny for my record! The record company would buy sheets of pre-printed stamps from the publishers and employ people to sit and stick them on the record labels - a tedious job: hence they can be all over the place and at odd angles! Later, the 'stamps' were actually printed on the labels. Very often, on these old records, the stamps have come off - usually because of someone getting the label wet when cleaning the disc. You'll find music publishers are similarly acknowledged on 45s and 33s - but not with sticky stamps!

Old English accent, "This Record is unique, in that it features the distinctly new syncopated rhythm called, 'The Charleston'!" I love the introduction! At a time when recording was becoming more popular than ever, while still being experimental, America and the world was booming with musical talents- in voice or in instrument. Shellacs like these are historical to everyone for this was the beginning of the advancements in sound. When I hear this tune, I recall all of the wonderful things of the past! Best version yet! I do like Paul Whiteman's version as well. And let us not forget, the father of stride piano, James P. Johnson for the sweet rhythm in the first place! But The Savoy Orpheans do it for me! My thanks for posting a VERY high quality recording of this undying anthem of America!
