Lovely recording ! I've tried to find out more about Cyril Grantham the vocalist, I did hear that he lived into his late 90's but have not found anything about his death. Thanks for sharing this recording.

I had to do a double take when I played it expecting something from the late 40s!!! It's a pity they weren't still playing like this in 1948 but tines change.This is much more my style and period. Nice to hear music performed by other bands! Thanks for this. Lovely!

What do you mean by a "custom pressing label"? And what could you press? Did you make your own, private recordings a studio, and then have them pressed on this label? Or what?

The company was formed in 1934, by ex-Columbia records, recording engineer, Cecil Nixon. They were based in Crewdson Road, SW9 in London. They recorded and pressed the record for you at the rate of, 12 @ 5 shillings each, 25 @ 4s each, 50 @ 2s 6d, each, 100 @ 1s 8d and a halfpenny each, and 1000 @ 1s 4d and a halfpenny each. You could sell them for whatever you wanted. They also began commercially made issues marketed through music publisher, Keith Prowse in 1935.

A fascinating issue - I'm just wondering if the composer/pianist Laurie Brewis commissioned it for potential backers, as it sounds like the score for a musical or revue, or some such. Nicely performed and played by drummer Doug Fisher & his Arcadians, who were a popular part of the Richmond and adjacent borough's dance band scene from 1928 - 1938.

A tune which is usually performed as a sentimental and slow fox trot, gets a great swing treatment here. Lovely trumpet behind Fred's vocal, and the second half has superb sax section and solo work, and what a rough house close - glorious.
