[78-L] Ralph Flanagan - Janette Davis question WITH the link

[David Lennick]

The Tribute to Glenn Miller album Flanagan did for Rainbow contained these 
(Flanagan conducted the orchestra, which was built around a number of Miller 
alumni, including Bobby Hackett and Dale McMickle (trumpets), Al Klink and 
Ernie Caceres (saxophones), and Trigger Alpert (bass).
Make Believe, Always, Low Gear, Come On In, I'm Getting Sentimental Over You, 
Goodbye, St. Louis Blues, Basin Street Blues. No duplication. Could Flanagan 
have recorded for Standard Transcriptions around this time? Obie got material 
from them in the fifties as well.
