Last week I continued to insert more V-Discs to the rotation. But, I also cleaned up and added some fantastic "One Night Stand" performances from Jack Teagarden, Les Brown and Buddy Morrow.
Listen for these newly added recordings to the Swing City Radio playlist:
Jack Teagarden - "One Night Stand" Ep #374 - Aug 15, 1944
Includes songs like "Rompin' and Stompin'", "Poinciana" and a song featuring vocalist Phyllis Lane called "And Then".
Les Brown - "One Night Stand" - Ep #328 - July 17, 1944
This performance was recorded at the Café Rouge and includes the songs "Okay For Baby", "G.I. Jive", "I Dream of You" and many others. Vocalists Doris Day, Gordon Drake and Butch Stone are all featured.
Buddy Morrow - One Night Stand - Ep #1026 - May 27, 1946
Buddy had made quite a few appearances on "One Night Stand" at this point, and this performance is among his best on the show. He performs great versions of "Smoke Get's In Your Eyes" and "How High The Moon". Also, be sure to listen for Helen Lee on vocals on "Snap Your Fingers" and "Shoo Fly Pie".
Songs on a Silver Platter
I also added some tracks from an AFRS show called "Silver Platter". The episode starred Marion Hutton, Andy Russell and The Pied Pipers. I was able to restore six songs from that recording including "Love Is So Terrific" by The Pied Pipers, "But Beautiful" by Marion Hutton and "The Best things In Life Are Free" by Andy Russell. Also, two duets featuring Hutton and Russell. Very good stuff!
