[78-L] Standard Radio Transcription 1028/1029

[David Lennick]

Whoever Carol Gilbert was, she made a number of Standard transcriptions (Q169, 170, 173, 175, 178, 181). Instrumentals, presumably, since the Q series is just that (actdually "Instrumental Novelty). Standard generally didn't use pseudonyms.

> I've found a Standard Radio Transcription #1028/1029 with 'Jamie Come Try Me' by Carol Gilbert and her Swing Shifters plus 'Cocktails For Two' by Spike Jones.
> 
> I don't seem to be able to find anything about Carol Gilbert and/or her Swing Shifters on the internet. And the song she sings is not too much like the Robert Burns poem of 1789 with the same name.

> If anyone can shed some light on this mystery person, group, and song, I would be very grateful. Or point me towards a good resource to find out about them.
> 
> Also, I was told that this and other records in this collection are from someone named Jack Frost, supposedly connected with either Victor records or Standard Transcriptions. Does that ring a bell?
