Just curious ... is that Decca "safe" to play on an Orthophonic Victrola? I thought they were made for the newer electrical phonographs with lighter tonearms.
@kraftpr Sure, keep in mind that this is still in the depression era, when many many folks were still using their Acoustic Phonographs with steel needles. Sure there were some folks who owned a newer electric phonographs, but those electric phonographs still used a steel needle and many had a heavy electric pickup placed on the record.
Ginger made more records than people seem to be aware of!!

Ginger sings three songs in the movie and dances to two of them. I love this movie and Ginger's singing and dancing.

Ginger Rogers was another massively talented person who had to bad luck to be forever in the shadow of Fred Astaire!
