[78-L] Your 10 best records!!

[Taylor Bowie]

Herbeveaux...great band,  not well-known even by a lot of us dance band 
collectors.

Frank Sylvano is one of my favorite band singers of the era...one of his 
best vocals is on the Jerry Freeman Orch buff Bluebird of "Hush My Mouth (If 
I Ain't Goin' South)"  which has some nice hot stuff on it,  too.

Playing it now...amen, brother! Brunswick 3557-A. The B-side, "Where
The Wild, Wild Flowers Grow," isn't bad either. That's one of three
Herbuveaux records that came my way 12 years ago when I purchased the
leftovers of a big local collection. The others were Brunswick 3606
and 3646. B-side of the latter, "Who's That Knockin' At My Door?", is
another fave. All six sides have vocals by Frank Sylvano.

Take care,


Joe
