Roaring 20s: Ipana Troubadours - My Strongest Weakness, 1927

[chkjns]

I'm confused - is this recording from 1927 or 1929 ?

[CrystalChord2010]

@chkjns Maybe the song was made in 1927,but this was recorded in 1929? I dunno, but that might be it. :3

I love it, . . . makes you long for bygone days of prosperity and wealth, lol, . . .

Smith Ballew also sang w/Ipana Troubadours on their last record w/Columbia called "Who's Your Little Whoozis (sp)?" Ballew also did a lot work w/American Record Company as Buddy Blue and his Texans, & their studio artists

along with the Crown label and Victor w/his own band,and Burt Lown's Band (Blue is the Night, on Perfect w/Lown's Orch.1929). He was in the same genrre as Harold "Scrappy" Lambert, but more relaxed.

There is no question as to the date. It is from 1929 as "fromthesidelines" stated. This record is Columbia Viva-tonal 2006-D and it featured a song from the "Talkie Hit 'So Long Letty" Since the film was released in 1929, it is hardly possible that the record was recorded in 1927.. This song was written especially for the film. The exact recording date is 10/11/29.

Classy and Elegant. :) By the way, this was from the Vitaphone feature "So Long Letty" (1929) which starred Charlotte Greenwood.

This was actually recorded on October 11, 1929.....

What atrocious fate to have to miss YT on holiday :-).....

My strongest weakness (or my weakest strength, whatever) is that I'm really hooked on this unmistakably careless and hot 20's sound. Thanks for sharing all those tunes!
