This is a great combination, Tommy Dorsey 78 played on RCA Victor tube phonograph!! This phonograph has very good sound with a wide response...Friends, Lloyd.
That's indeed swingin' in a great big way! Bunny Berigan on trumpet. Great sound too, even when the shellack seems to be quite worn. But what would you expect else from such a big hit? It's been played over and over again since 1937 when it came out.
78's sound best on the record players designed for them originally. They require a different equalization curve from 33 and 45 rpm records to sound correct. When played on the right 78 rpm player they sound excellent and noise free.
Nice song, but the best sound quality on a 78. My GE Wildcat has a 78 speed and it does have issues where it doesn't have a flip needle to play 78's, just a regular type of LP/45 needle only. This LP/45 needle can ruin 78's, but it had the worst sound quality of 78's playing on my 1975 GE Wildcat. IMO, I do have that song from the LP "This Is Tommy Dorsey" on the RCA Victor label back in 1971. I will do a song of that later on "MagcialWorldofMusic".

Bunny's solo is one of the greatest trumpet solos of all time imo.

Thank you for all the great music too !
