Does anyone out there have Lombardo's Columbia recording of "You Or No One"?I
had it years
ago(in 1978)and I really enjoyed it;I didn't hear the corn until the records he
cut for RCA in the
late '30s some of which were reissued onto the RCA/Reader's Digest set "The
Great Band Era"
which I first heard back in 1966.I now have about three sets of it.I know little
of his Columbia and
Brunswick output although I had a few of his sides on Brunswick.If I remember
correctly,the rev-
erse of "You or No One" was "Without You Emaline" with a vocal by Carmen
Lombardo.

Uh...thanks, Steve. I'll be sure to keep that in mind.
Actually, you're mistaken. Every element of what was later known as the
"Lombardo style" is pretty well in evidence as early as the 1927
Columbias...my point was that the Lombardo style can be used to fine effect,
and sometimes with genuine jazz touches and color.
