[78-L] Barney Rapp Victor test

[Dan Van Landingham]

I think he should have used "Louis" rather than  Barney.I wouldn't want to use 
my name if I were a band
leader.

Al,  I had no idea that you were into "Rapp" music.

Barry Wood's first records as a singer were  with the Buddy Rogers band on 
Victor in 1932...under his real name of Louis Rapp.  Great records,  btw.
