[78-L] Movie dubbing

[Taylor Bowie]

The Bluebird set is great...but there are a lot of good ones which they 
didn't include.  "What About Me" is another of the highlights on the BB set.

I had always read that she "retired" in 1935,  which made it all the more 
interesting that she turns up dubbng a vocal for a 1938 movie for Fox.  And 
someone else mentioned her being credited on some post-1935 radio 
show...sounds like she didn't really take to being retired!  And her 1938 
style sounds pretty up-to-date in terms of swing-influenced pop singing, 
too.
