Paul Whiteman & His Orchestra - Louisiana, Take 3 - Victor 25369

I can't understand why people don't like music from this era. They can suck on it!

Recorded on April 23, 1928. Three takes were recorded; "take 1" was originally issued on Victor 21438; the second one was discarded, and eventually destroyed. This take {3} was "held" until this release in the summer of 1936 (with Bing and Bix finally given label credit). Bing's vocal and Bix's solo are different in each.

@fromthesidelines This is the kind of information that adds to our enjoyment of the music here on YT. I urge others to share similar information that they discover about any recording, particularly this early era when some much is being lost as those who know so much pass from the scene.
