[78-L] ARC-Brunswick vocalists

[Taylor Bowie]

I have 30 or so of them,   from late'31 into '35 as I recall.  All of the 
ones I have are dance tunes and they all run outside-in.  A lot of great 
stuff,  plenty of Freddy Martin both credited and uncredited.  Couple of 
Nichols sides,  too...Sweet Sue and Oh,  What A Thrill.
