Out of The Dawn - Nat Shilkret and The Victor Orchestra (1928)

Nat Shilkret and The Victor Orchestra play "Out of The Dawn" from the film: "Warming Up". This has to be one of my all-time favorite tunes by Nat Shilkret, mostly due to the lush strings and syncopating saxophones that make multiple appearances. It also helps that the song is beautiful, at least in my opinion. This is the theme tune to the synchronized sound film "Warning Up", similar to how the flip side of this record was also a movie theme. The film is unfortunately considered to be lost, with no prints known to exist. A real shame, as I would have enjoyed hearing how the composer Walter Donaldson had the song performed in the film. (This song has also been caught by Content ID, though it appears that there is no issue).
Here is the flip side: • Jeannine I Dream of Li...
Lyrics (transcribed from the record):
Out of the dawn,
There came a sunbeam.
Out of the dawn,
A dream came true.
Wandering on,
I find that sunbeam,
Lingering on
The long day through.
Please tell me who'd ever think
My skies would ever be blue?
Who'd ever think
I'd need somebody like you?
But out of the dawn,
There came a sunbeam.
And a beautiful dream
Came true!

Something I noticed is that between 3:00 and 3:03, there seems to be a stray strum of what I can only assume to be an upright bass. It's a little difficult to make out, but that is quite an interesting blunder if that's what the sound is. There also seems to be some high-pitched squealing beginning around the 2:00 mark and ending at 3:03. I believe that is due to the way the record was pressed, though I am not completely sure as to how this could've happened.

According to audio engineer Steve Hoffman, the squealing sound you're talking about is from the soft beeswax of the master blank becoming cooler, and the cutter head reacting.

This is one of my favorite Nat Shilkret recordings.

Frankly Baur was in excellent voice.
