[78-L] Bee Sharp and Orchestra

[David Lewis]

I have BB-5219, recorded 10-11-1933, "Easter Parade" and "Not For All the Tea in China" credited to "Bee Sharp and Orchestra." It's interesting that they did not use the possessives "his" or "her" in relation to the orchestra. The voice is rather androgynous,though I am assuming it's a man. Was "Bee Sharp" a real person, or a pseudonym for someone known? thanks,
