Melotone 13226 has SCICTT backed with 'Winter wonderland' (mx 16292-1) as by
'Marimba Novelty Orchestra'.  Tyrone's listing mentions George Green;
vocalist not credited but by Harold Lambert.  Both recorded 2 November 1934.

Okeh 4490 was also earlier Banner et al 5-12-10; 'Jingle bells' recorded 14
October 1935.
