A nice “bowling ball” style Pathé Actuelle disc with a splatter of black and red shellac by Joe Candullo and his Everglades Orchestra.
This side did not look promising based on the title, and I put it on with low expectations. The first 90 seconds are a pleasant straightforward dance band number with vocal. However, at 1:28, my ears perked up at Goof Moyer’s warbling alto sax solo that then led to excellent subsequent trombone, sax, and trumpet solos. Not too shabby at all, gentlemen! 👏👏👏
Recorded in New York City circa July 1926.
