[78-L] Trumbauer 1932 sides

[Taylor Bowie]

I recently at long last obtained a copy of Columbia 2710-D Frank Trumbauer 
Orch. of Business in Q b/w I Think You're A Honey...another very late black 
label/black wax issue.

I am curious if anyone knows the circumstances of these and the other sides 
from the same late-1932 session.  Rust's personnel is a list of names 
unknown to me,  with the exception of trombonist Joe Harris.  Who are the 
rest of these guys?  I thought Trumbauer pretty much stuck to other Whiteman 
musicians for his studio records of this era.  After listening to both 
sides,  I wish he hadn't made this exception.

To clarify,  the record is borderline terrible...the pop tune side is a 
stiff and wretched thing,   played with little life or distinction,  save 
for an amusing vocal by The Foursome.   The "jazzy side" is a hideous Will 
Hudson-esque slice of blather (written by Archie Bleyer so it's 
Bleyerblather),  which contains some of the most obnoxious Trumbauer 
twiddling and catterwalling I've ever heard.  I don't mind a lot of Tram's 
novelty playing (Whiteman's Sun Spots,  Bouncing Ball,  etc.) but this is 
just crap.
