Incidentally there is that George Gershwin Memorial Concert that was 
broadcast on CBS September 8, 1937...... issued on CD by Open Vault Records 
and mastered by a certain David Lennick. Jose Iturbe played the "Rhapsody In 
Blue" on that occasion while simulataneously conducting it with who knows 
what. A fabulous CD with Gershwin compositions played by The Los Angeles 
Philharmonic orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl. Guest conductors were Otto 
Klemperer, Nat Shilkret ,and Victor Young. Also appearing were Al Jolson, 
Gladys Swarthout, Fred Astaire,Oscar Levant and Lily Pons, Nice day's work. 
Thank you David.

Al Simmons
