[CMarkulis]

Thank you for this rare record. in my opinion "Dinah" is very good, too; there are more than one musically good recordings of that band. I like "Kiss the boys good bye" or those recordings with Lale Andersen, if you know them from some cd compilation.

@CMarkulis Oh yes, there are several good swing tunes with Charlie. I also have "Kiss the boys" although not in the brightest condition, but I always pick them up in any condition ;o). Once I found one with Lale Andersen, but musically uninteresting so I traded it for something else.

Wow! Where´d you buy these record? Extremely rare.

[danishjazz]

@HeadHunter131 I have never bought any Charlie. I will not pay the prices. This one I inherit from a very good collector friend of mine.

Thanks! I have this record on CD together with an other fine jazzy example from 1943 with the original lyrics without propaganda: I GOT RHYTHM. Highly recommended!
