Description
JEAN GOLDKETTE'S WGN ORCHESTRA (ANNOUNCED AS 'THE ESKIMO PIE ORCHESTRA' - 'MISS YOU' ON 12" SINGLE-SIDED ESKIMO PIE RADIO TRANSCRIPTION DISC No. 5949. THESE DISCS, INCLUDING ANNOUNCEMENTS, WERE RECORDED IN THE SUMMER OF 1929 BY MARSH LABORATORIES (MAKERS OF THE FAMOUS 'AUTOGRAPH' 78s) AND APPARENTLY PRESSED BY COLUMBIA. THE GOLDKETTE BAND WAS THE RESIDENT ORCHESTRA AT CHICAGO'S STATION WGN, AND THIS IS THE BAND TO BE HEARD ON SUCH JAZZ CLASSICS AS 'BIRMINGHAM BERTHA, 'FORGETTING YOU' AND 'MY BLACKBIRDS ARE BLUEBIRDS NOW'. LEADER HAROLD STOKES IS VOCALIST ON SEVERAL OF THESE TRANSCRIPTIONS. CONTRARY TO INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET, THE RECORDING QUALITY IS FIRST RATE! I WILL BE OFFERING MORE OF THESE RARE DISCS IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.
