BRUNSWICK
RED NORVO (0 ) 8068
I WAS DOING ALL RIGHT (FT)
LOVE IS HERE TO STAY (FT)
IT'S WONDERFUL (FT)
ALWAYS AND ALWAYS (FT)
A pair of swellegants from the "Goldwyn
Follies. " The queen of them all, MIldred
Bailey, holds forth on the vocals and brother,
your bread is buttered. A '!reat dl~C. SecDnd
pair, a trifle bit older, but Just as mterestmg.
The Bailey-Norvo combo. should bnng m the
coin.
TEDDY WILSON ( 0 ) 8070
WHEN YOU'RE SMILING (FT)
I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU'RE IN
LOVE WITH ME (FT)
Here is another unbeatable combination .
Wilson and Billie Holliday. Wilson bangs out,
swing style, a pair of nifties, and Billie adds
glamor to them with her lyric chanhng. Very
good.
HORACE HEIDT ( 0 ) 8073. 8074, 8075, 8078
HOW 'DjA LIKE TO LOVE ME? (FT)

DAY (FT)
I'LL TAKE YOU HOME AGAIN
KATHLEEN(FT)
HEIGH-HO (FT)
GUESS RIGHT WITH HORACE
HEIDT (l & 2)
When it comes to sweet swing nobody ex-
cels the Heidt combo. Here is living evidence.
This sextet of tunes brings to the operator as
fine a group of dance tunes any band has re-
corded in a week's period recently. HIghly
recommended. The entire organization partici-
pates to make these six sides truly worthy of
your attention.
TI-PI-TIN (Waltz)
A SHACK IN THE BACK OF THE
HILLS (FT)
This one requires a separate comment for
it is destined to be one of the biggest Heidt
has made for some little time. It is a perfect
recording of the sensational new waltz plus a
superb rendition of a popular slow foxtrot.
This disc has two highly saleable numbers.
Recommended.
RAY NOBLE (0) 8079
THE MOON OF MANAKOORA (FT)
I HADN 'T ANYONE 'TILL YOU (FT)
You've heard, and used, many recordings of
the first number but you've never had a pro-
duction number like this 'un. It is entirely
different and completely overshadows past
efforts on the number. Worthy of a good try.
Coupling is a slow ft., only fair.
RUSS MORGAN (0) 8080
ooooo-OH BOOM! (FT)
AT A PERFUME COUNTER (FT)
Hats off and a pair of cheers to Brunswick
for this terrific double. Combining a fast nov-
elty tune with a slow and dreamy foxtrot
Russ Morgan acquits himself admirably. It
really is a darb and you shouldn't miss it. We
know many ops. are buying only the lower
bracket records right at present but when
records like this come along the operator is
cheating himself for it will more than pay for
itself in increased plays.
PINKY TOMLIN (V) 8082
HOME TOWN
SHENANIGANS
A pair of ditties particularly suitable to
the style and delivery of Pinky Tomlin. First
is an interesting and swingy old time style
number that should click. Second hails from
Republic's "Outside of Paradise" and has
-already won its spurs . Very fine vocal pair-
ing.
BLUEBIRD
THE NORSEMAN (V) 7405
LET'S WALTZ FOR OLD TIME'S SAKE
I PASSED UP A W ONDERFUL THING
An excellent male quartet does a noble job
with these two tunes. First is by far the best
·and should coax the n ickels. Well done and
well recorded.
TUNE WRANGLERS (HB) 7413
FOUR LEAFED C LOVER (FT)
W HE N YOU THI NK ' A W HO LE LOT
ABOUT SOMEONE (FT)
Snappy, full of pep, and bound to p lease
the h illbilly customers plenty. These fast num-
bers are genuinely good. First ditty is an old
timer a nd second side .offers a number th at
should register okeh.
BLUE BARRON (0) 7419
AT A PERFUME COUNTER (FT)
DID AN ANGEL KISS YOU? (FT)
A truly swell dance disc. Blue Barron has
just been signed by Victor and this is his first
offering under the Bluebird label. A finished
band, solid tunes, and great arrangements.
FREDDY MARTIN (D) 7420
MY DAY (FT)
MAMMY BONG (FT)
Unusual numbers. Second leads the pair
and has a Cuban flavor. Lyrics are plenty
interesting. Good.
OZZIE NELSON ( 0 ) 7430, 7432
A SHACK IN THE BACK OF THE
HILLS (FT)
THE OLD APPLE TREE (FT)
YOU'RE AN EDUCATION (FT)
IT'S EASIER SAID THAN DONE (FT)
A snappy foursome of delectable dance mu-
sic. All played lively with suitable vocals.

DEAN HUDSON (N) 7433
LIEBESTRAUM
STORMY WEATHER
Here is a natural for automatic phono-
graphs. The Glee Club assisted by the vibra-
phone turn in as fine a novelty vocal as we've
had the privilege of reviewing for some little
time. Get this and give it time to build. It's
really tops!
ARTHUR TODD (V) 7434
THANKS FOR THE MEMORY
GOODNIGHT, SWEET DREAMS,
GOODNIGHT
From the Radio City Rainbow Room comes
this latest vocal rave of New York city. Tenor
with guitar..
and very good, too! The '
numbers are current favorites. The recording
is perfect. The cash possibilities for the disc
are apparent. 'Nuf sed .
BILL BOYD (HB) 7435
THAT'S W HY I'M JEALOUS OF YOU
(FT)
AN ACE (FT)
This disc features two popular tunes. The
first is rendered in a style that will click in
barrooms while the second side is a novelty
minstrel song and it's most profitable use is
easy to determine. Good.
DECCA
FRANKIE CARLE (N) 1623
THE WEDDING OF THE PAINTED
DOLL (FT)
DOLL DANCE (FT)
Popular piano with guitar, bass and drums.
Both tunes are popular numbers of a few
years back. This novel recording should ex-
cite attention and result in a substantial play.
BING CROSBY (V) 1616
DANCING UNDER THE STARS
PALACE IN PARADISE
With Lani McIntire and his Hawaiians Bing
turns in two very fine vocal offerings. Second
tune, by Harry Owens, is a honey.
BING CROSBY (V ) 1648, 1649
ON THE SENTIMENTAL SIDE
MY HEART IS TAKING LESSONS
THE MOON OF MANAKOORA
THIS IS MY NIGHT TO DREAM
Crosby has always been a money maker for
the operator. Here is a quartet of numbers
that certainly will not disappoint. First pair
and the fourth number come from Major Pic-
tures' "Dr. Rhythm." Third tune claims "The
Hurricane " for parentage. john Scott Trotter
and his ork. back up. Great stuff for the en-
terprising op. Recommended.
JIMMY DORSEY (0) 1651. 1652
ON THE SENTIMENTAL SIDE (FT)
DOCTOR RHYTHM (FT)
MY FIRST IMPRESSION OF YOU (FT)
SMOKE FROM A CHIMNEY (FT)
