...Eldridge (trumpet). Only trouble with the record is that "Stardust," on the other side, has some of the worst recording this reviewer has ever heard. The turn-table on the recorder was varying so badly when the record was made that it changes key about every thirty seconds ... Listen to the first chorus of Art Shaw's "Rose Room." The rest is not so good. Casa Loma turns loose a rather weird sense of humor, recording "The Old Oaken Bucket" under the title of "Hoboken Bucket" ... Funny thing that Benny Goodman's best records in the last year have been...
...Allan Reuss, formerly with Goodman (guitar) are all playing with the band. And Mr. Teagarden himself, known to the trade as "Big Gate," is going to lead the four man trombone section. Jack was playing hot trombone when Tommy Dorsey was playing licks on a milk bottle. Listen to "Texas Tea Party" (Columbia 31671) of "Moonglow" (Columbia 2927D, all made with the old Goodman band, to hear what Teagarden can do with a trombone. Thus while the quality of the band as a whole is an unknown, inspiring jazz is a certainty next Friday night...
...advertisement, would it? The first side is uniformly bad, sounding something like one of Ray Scott's compositions.

Made three days before she started to sing regularly with the band, Helen O'Connell...

They may learn some common sense in this way. For this reason I would rather welcome and invite all the Totalitarianists to listen to to read, and to study the sound social science theories as much as they can. P. A. Sorokin...
...operation. There was a certain rate of feeding in ore at which it performed most efficiently, and that rate could be estimated by sound. When the feed was too slow, the noisy clatter of the mill increased; when too fast, the sound was muffled. Workmen were trained to listen for these changes in sound and manipulate the ore flow accordingly. But Harlowe Hardinge noticed that the listeners' judgment was likely to vary as much as 20 decibels. They judged the sound differently when they were tired and when they were fresh, before lunch and after lunch...
