[78-L] Billy Clarke and Bert Green..who?

[David Lennick]

Answering mine own question with a search into the Pseudonyms book, I think we can conclude that it's Arthur Fields and Jack Kaufman. Irving was also known as Billy Clarke but this definitely isn't Irving and the matrix number is consecutive with the side attributed to Fields. Interesting record..I'd never heard a full vocal version before.

 

And people think we record collectors don't lead exciting lives! It is to laugh.

One of them is clearly Arthur Fields, who in fact is credited solo on the other side (All Over Nothing At All). Any thoughts on who's singing with him? Not a particularly prominent voice.
