[78-L] For lovers of British Dance Band music

No British big bands doing Schubert,but I do have a 1937 Gus Arnheim Brunswick 
of "Schubert's
Serenade" which I bought in 1994 at the aforementioned Sunset Automatic Music 
Company" in
Coos Bay,Oregon.The surface is horrible and while the record was unplayed,the 
sound was equal-
ly bad-very distorted as opposed to other Brunswicks I have like Krupa's "Tutti 
Frutti"(8/10/38)
and "Dracula" which made very good transfers to tape.
