ust got a copy of "The Hottest Man in Town" b/w "My Best Girl" by 
Ukulele Ike (Cliff Edwards) on Harmograph 987. This is the 3rd variation 
of the label - colored blue and featuring the slogan "The Human Echo" 
beneath the label name. This release is not listed in Rust's 
Entertainment Discography although there is a Pathe pairing of the same 
sides. Are these the same masters? Inscribed in the label are the 
numbers 032088A and 032088B, but these do not match any of the Pathe 
numbers I've seen. And incidentally, "My Best Girl" is a super hot 
title, with Edwards scatting along with a hot tuba! Anyone know who's 
accompanying him?

It's Joe Tarto. This was reissued on Broadway LP BR108 "Joe Tarto Titan 
Of The Tuba".
