Hi Mark,

I'm pretty sure that the earliest Johnny Morris (billed at times as "The 
World's Fastest Drummer") vocals with Specht are from 1927,  which would be 
about three years later than the vocal record of the drummer guy with 
Creath.

Morris was with Lopez for a long run after he was with Specht...I like his 
singing for some reason.  Maybe it's his enthusiasm?
