[78-L] Worst singer in the 20's 30's

[David Lennick]

I forgot about Biff Hoffman..mercifully. Brian Boyd played one of his Brunswick 
sides when it was "guest night" at Night Camp. He also introduced "A Night At 
Coffee Dan's" as his choice for "worst record ever made" but I liked that one.

He sings off key, he has no rhythm, and his voice has the worst qualities of Irving Mills worst vocals. With all the great talent around the country in those days why did he get a chance.
