[78-L] Paul Whiteman-recording venue?

[victrola78s at aol.com]

Yesterday I picked up 17 records at an antique mall here in Indy, and I came across a Paul Whiteman disc that startled me. The record is Victor 20418, "Wistful and Blue" backed with "Lonely Eyes". Don't know the recording date yet(I also ordered the Victor Black Label Discography III yesterday-got all the others). This record has a large sound to it, a "big hall"/"big space" sound with considerable reverb, very live tone. Reminds me of the Waring "Freshie" that had been discussed on the list many moons ago. Anyone know where this was recorded, and under what conditions. I played this on my 1926 Credenza(thanks Don!) and the sound really leaps out at you on this one.
