Description
Born to Russian immigrants, Sam Lanin (1891-1977) was one of the most prolific recording artists of the 1920s and the most famous of three band leading brothers, the other two being Howard and Lester of 1950s society dance band fame. He recorded “Ten Little Miles from Town” and “If You Don’t Love Me” on August 3, 1928. Marvelous arrangements! Some wear, but plays well. Condition V+
NOTE: I grade records by a rating system that has been standard in the industry for decades. Still, it can be a subjective undertaking. I am more likely to grade by how the record reproduces aurally (I use a 78 Shure cartridge with a 1950s Voice of Music turntable that has been fit into a 1946 Magnavox Belvedere radio-phonograph) than by how it looks visually. Sometimes a record that appears substantially worn plays very well and sometimes the opposite is true.
