[78-L] Hal Kemp record question

[simmonssomer]

At precisely 34 seconds into the tune somebody had the poor taste to 
generate the ultimate gaffe...an audible cough while the red light was on.
We don't know what happened to that poor wretch but we do know that 
immediately after that May 31, 1939 session Jack LeMaire, the guitarist, was 
replaced by Ken Binford. Hmmmm.
