The singer is actually Jack Parker, who sometimes used the pseudonym Jack Hart. He did a lot of work for Edison both as Jack Parker and J. Donald Parker.
this budget label (recording can be found on Harmony, Diva, VelvetTone, M-G-M & a few others (from Columbia) used the same Viva-tonal Western Electric process as its parent label. the flip side YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME on any other label would read 'Sam Lanin's Orchestra, with vocal refrain by Jack Hart.' instead hart is listed as main star.
My first comment disappeared (probably down a Manhattan "manhole"--not what you think it is!) so I'll say again thanks for the sophisticated blue nostalgia on this gray Sunday afternoon.
Perfect NYC sophisticated blue nostalgia for a gray Sunday afternoon. Six bandleaders! All no doubt born with a baton in their hands; poor Mama Mary Lanin...

Kspm01, KEEN! ;-) A very different take than the standard- Charles King's. Very refreshing. Thanks. Regards, J.

Let's not forget Nacio Herb Brown and Alfred Freed..the composers, not to mention Irving Thalberg who brought it all together!.
