Not only great music, but also terrifically recorded - thank you, Victor!
It's instructive to compare the ARC sides done in 1933 by Casa Loma & Cab
Calloway with their concurrent Victor sessions - quel sound difference!

 Joe Haymes and his Orch. and the 1932 Benny Moten Orch. (hear their Camden 
session).
Verdant islands in an ocean of relative drek.  Oases in a desert of 
banality.    Bright comets in the musical cosmos.
