Here’s another of those hard to restore Hit Of The Week records. Also from 1931, Sam Lanin’s Orchestra playing a snappy fox-trot - Me.
From my own collection, here’s a five minute Hit of the week record from 1931. Freddie Rich’s Radio Orchestra performs It’s The Girl. Freddie Rich’s Orchestra included famous people like Eddie Lang, Joe Venuti, Bunny Berrigan and Tommy Dorsey.
In 1923 Rudolph Valentino made a record. The two songs recorded are the only examples of what his voice sounded like. The Kashmiri Love Song is the better of the two. Rudy was clearly not a singer. Enjoy!
Ted Weems and his Orchestra play Remarkable Girl, recorded on the Victor label in September 1929. What a band!
Mechanical Man - A number from the lost all color talkie Gold Diggers Of Broadway (1929) Winnie Lightner belting out her love for Albert Gran in a way only she could pull off.
A fine january 1928 recording on the Brunswick label: The Sunrise - Scrappy Lambert & Gordon’s Adelphia Whispering Orchestra.
