A double threat! Sam Lanin and Smith Ballew! Keep your Crosby, Columbo and Vallee...give me Smith Ballew anytime!

Very nice tunes. Thanks for the posting. Western Electric Sound System explains the good fidelity.

Transporting. Smith Ballew's singing is dreamy and the sound quality is terrific. Thanks for posting it.

I Never Dreamt...this is my personal soundtrack from this point onward. Thank you very much.

Very excellent

[@alexmckenna1171]

Thanks for this lovely record ! Sad but lovely. The second track, I meant, although both are wonderful.

[@richardmoon1852]

Thankis again.

"The New VIVA-tonal Columbia" nice.

[@VaudevilleSchtick101]

I agree with gregoryagogo; In all due respect, I eagerly await your releases weekly, but find it frustrating when I can't readily recall or know the name of the second song. Would you consider naming the second song in the notes section before the HD reminder? You are the best and thanks!

[@derealjazzer3145]

I love the western electric sound system would love to record on it

[@richardmoon1852]

Thanks again.

[@richardmoon1852]

Still brilliant sides, after 80 years.

Recorded on February 27, 1930.

[@gregoryagogo]

You should mention song #2 instead of making us guess! Got it hough.... "Hanging On The Garden Gate"

[@gregoryagogo]

1:49, he takes a bite out of the microphone!

[@ianblakesley3349]

1.49 sounds like a minor fault on the disc itself, very difficult to eliminate electronically.

[@billfurman1494]

I remember 1930. No smog then....

[@jm10014]

that is definitely not true
