[78-L] Lou Calabrese

[simmonssomer]

I have some twenty eight Specht sides on which Calabrese is listed as 
banjoist and on one disc as trumpet soloist ("Echoes Of The South" Part1 and 
2 on Col 1013-D  12/22/26). These can be transferred to CD.
The Georgians were, of course, a unit of Specht's Orch.and I also have mebbe 
6 or so sides by this group with  Calabrese as the banjoist. I don't have 
the two  Gennett sides. Contact me OT in the unlikely event that you don't 
already have these.
