[78-L] Virginia Jazz Orchestra

[Hans en Corrie]

Thanks Julian, David and Malcolm,

I didn't find it in the old ADBD either - It's a French label, but I guess
the band is English, as Stan Bowsher is mentioned as the arranger

How can I reach Michel Puppli?

I agree - it's not in ADBD or the newer ADB.
This is probably a French Band on a French recorded label, in which case 
it wouldn't be in either American discog. I thought it might be a 
pseudonym for a US band (neither ADBD or ADB lists band pseudonyms, 
unfortunately) but it seems not. Some European labels commonly used US 
sounding artist pseudonyms on their locally produced labels in order 
to... sell records! Except for the British, who'd dump the US name in 
favor of, say, The Piccadilly Players or The Majestic Dance Orchestra, 
etc., to appeal to national pride in order to... sell records!
You might ask Michel Ruppli, if he's still around. He may be able to 
steer you.
