Just LOVE this!
Tom Barratt is little known now, and his records are so hard to find.

The only ther version that I am familiar with is the Hit of the Week Duriam from 1930 which is great as well. I have several of the Broadcast 1'3p gramophone records as well as Edison Bell, and also the Crystalite product
which is excellent as well amaxzing how you can fit 3 minutes of Dance Music on a 7 Inch Gramophone Record.

Take a look at the upload of the '4 in 1' record from the early 1930's. The smaller, finer grooves made for a very long playing record!.

I must say this is a very good version. After I uploaded it I played it over again, then again and AGAIN!. It is testing my blinkered loyalty to Jack Payne's record!!

5 stars after listening 5 seconds. I can add very little to this either, the music "sings for itself"!
