Description
Henry Hall and His Gleneagles Hotel Band (at the Midland Hotel, Manchester) play "I Lost My Girl [sic] from Memphis" and "Good-Night, Sweetheart" on Decca F2330. "Memphis" is a very hot arrangement with many good solos and prominent string bass by Spike Hughes. Bobby Sanders sings. The flip is a ballad with alto and baritone sax solos. Recorded on April 19, 1931.
This record is in EE- condition generally. "Memphis" plays that way, but "Sweetheart" has a few instances of distortion in the very loudest passages. It's also a somewhat noisy pressing. Apart from those flaws, the record plays very well.
I'm a longtime collector who is downsizing. I know how to pack records.
