"Top hat, white tie and tails" - The Boswell Sisters

[2agray]

Wow. What kind of phonograph and reproducer is that? Very crisp and clear reproduction. Very mellow.

@2agray Thanks! It's a small portable Columbia Grafonola No.100. I think it's from ca. 1929. On the reproducer it just says "Columbia" and "Made in England", no number or other info on it. The gramophone is built in a metal case, which may be the reason that I don't get such a rich bass sound out of it? Otherwise it's in quite worn condition. I imagine that someone in the 1930s had lots of fun with it. I managed to sort of fix the broken arm and I'm happy that it's enjoying a 2nd life now :-)

A classic song given that exquisite Boswell treatment--marvelous!

I wish I could have lived during this time when the Boswell Sisters, and Andrew Sisters were popular. Life just seemed simpler. I"m 61 years old and identify with this time period.

Okay, this settles it; I'm going to have to buy another record player.

There's some kind of genius involved in arrangements like this one.
