Very Very well done! Clean sound is really amazing! Viva Tonal recordings were either great or pretty poor, and never seemed to find middle ground.

I only see her in action in "Rose Marie" where she performes a quiet hot dancing and singing.

I did not know Gilda Gray was polish! Superb music and "naughty but nice" illustrations! By the way, do you know that Mae West said that she invented shimmy too?

Hi, yes, Gilda's real name was Marianna Michalska, she was born in Cracow in around 1900 and her family left for the US (Milwaukee, Wisconsin) when she was 13-14 years old. There's no doubt the word "shimmy" was taken from the way she sung with a strong Polish accent, the line "I'm shakin' my CHEMISE" in one of her early 1920s dance numbers.
