[78-L] two or three questions about Gershwin/Shilkret American in Paris

[Jeff Sultanof]

Those taxi horns were the ones that Gershwin obtained. The Shilkret
recording was too important not to have them. Gershwin was at the recording
session and played the celeste part.

No idea who the trumpet player is. Doesn't RCA have a personnel listing?
