I just picked up some studio recordings by the Barbary Coast Orchestra, recorded Dec 7, 1942.  

The band members are listed as:
Whitten, Chase, Stahl, and Lazo on saxes
Chapman, Miller, and Olin on trumpets
Rudnick and Simpson on trombones
Storfer on piano
Roitman on bass
Eldredge on drums

Some research shows this group is from Dartmouth College in Hanover, NH.  Not a whole lot of music available for this group online.  Did they do any major label recordings?  Pretty good swing and jazz.  View and listen at:

Did any of these guys make the big time??

Thanks!  CDB
