Description

Spike Hughes and His Dance Orchestra play two great tunes, "A Ship Without A Sail" and "My Man Is On the Make," on Decca F1748.
On the medium-tempo "Ship," Jack Jackson and Philip Buchel sound like the second coming of Bix and Tram -- no foolin'!  Recorded in London on April 16, 1930 by Jack Jackson (tp); Reg Owen (cl,ts); Max Farley (cl,as); Philip Buchel (as); Stan Andrews (vln); Claude Ivy (p); Leslie Smith (g); Spike Hughes (b); Val Rosing (d,vcl).  
"Man" is an uptempo romp with fine solos throughout.  Recorded in London on April 29, 1930 by Jack Jackson (tp); Max Farley (cl,as); Philip Buchel (as); Bobby Davis (as,bar); Stan Andrews (vln); Eddie Carroll (p); Leslie Smith (g); Spike Hughes (b); Bill Harty (d).
This record is in VV+ condition generally, a little noisy in spots, with light scratches that tick intermittently.  It's an enjoyable listening experience nonetheless.  On YouTube (not this copy).
I'm a longtime collector who is downsizing.  I know how to pack records.
