The worst I ever heard was never released. Sylvester Ahola and Lou 
Calabrese were moonlighting this while under contract to Specht. They 
unexpectedly got Ethel foisted upon them by the Edison studio.

Ethel Stanley Hoolie Ahola's Vikings on Edison

Cock-A-Doodle I'm Off My Noodle/Looking At The World Through Rose 
Colored Glasses

November, 1926.

Interesting story about this session and many others in Sylvester's 
book, "Gloucester Gabriel." Lou and Hoolie of course went on to great 
careers, but as far as I know, this was end end of Ethel's.
