[78-L] Paul Whiteman-recording venue?

[Dan Van Landingham]

Would Jepsen's provide the information you need?I was turned onto it back in 
1978 by Ira Gitler when I
was trying to research the Earle Spencer Orchestra after hearing  his 1946 
recording of "Gangbusters"
on a TOPS 78.

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.
