My pal and our list mate Doug MacClellan has a copy of this, and I recall 
that he told me that it was actually a real band...from Minneapolis,  maybe?

Doug, enlighten us on this.

While we're on the subject, can anybody tell me anything about Wing Toy and 
his Orientals? I have a copy of "Sing Song Girl"/99 Out of a Hundred" 
(Broadway 1442). It's apparently a Sam Lanin band, with vocals by Walter 
Ahrens. Both songs are better versions than many others I've heard from that 
time. Any idea who is on this disc?
Thanks,
RonO

Smalle. VERY un-PC..



and in oldtime fiddle music: "Chinese Breakdown." And "Kill the
Shanghai Rooster..."
