It's in the Dance Band Discography - by Ben Selvin, mx. 236013-1, Harmony
6504-H, recorded January 12, 1932.
There were about a dozen issues in this fine-grooved long-playing series
from the 236000 matrix  block, all issued on Harmony-Clarion-Velvetone.
Some were one 5-minute tune, others were two songs on the same side. 	
Columbia also did a similar group of long-plays, in the 255000 matrix
block, issued as numbers 18000-D and up. All were newly recorded, AFAIK.
Mostly dance medleys.
