[78-L] Ed Kirkeby - crooner and manager in the 1920s

[Hans en Corrie]

Although Ed KIrkeby is remembered as the manager of Fats Waller, he also was
a gifted vocalist or crooner if you like. During the 1920s his voice is to
be heard on numerous dance band recordings of bands with imaginative names,
like the University Six, the Goofus Five or the Varsity Eight - in fact all
the same group of people: Swindle or marketing? Fact is that Ed Kirkeby was
one of them using several pseudonyms as a crooner.
