Not sure where I picked this one up but I'm 100% positive that it came home with me because of the labels. This group appears to be a Nathan Glantz band with vocals by Charles Hart.
Hi! How do you know it was recorded in NY? I'm curious, because my grandpa Zeke Youngblood had a band named the Arabian Knights, and they recorded some things on Gennett that I have been hoping to find someday. But they were from Indiana and I'm pretty sure they would have recorded in Richmond. This might be another group, same name. Christy, Indiana
I found the information in The American Dance Band Discography 1917-1942 by Brian Rust. He has the above group listed as a pseudonym for the prolific Nathan Glantz outfit.
I do believe that Gennett first recorded out of New York studios and in 1921, built a studio in Richmond.
Would you happen to know any song titles that your grandfather recorded?
