...brawl on May 23. This band is one of those rare groups which can play swing and sweet equally well. Besides, Bobby himself is one of the best white jazz trombonists in the game, and his technique on that instrument ranks with that of Jack Teagarden and Tommy Dorsey. Vocalist Dorothy Claire you've heard to good advantage with Glenn Miller. You'll see her to better advantage at the Jubilee...
Dorothy Claire will round out Byrne's smoothly styled music as the band's featured vocalist. Even before the recent controversy between Byrnes' and Glenn Miller, who tried to sign Miss Claire while she was under contract to Byrnes, she was known to all musically minded America for her sweet singing and tantalizing personality...

An ear-splitting singer, he made his wife, his onetime singing pupil Blanche Victoria Pope, his stand-in vocalist in his studies. Flagstad plugged him as a conductor (TIME, Feb. 5, 1940).

...surprise of the year: Georgie Auld off tenor sax. Georgie used to be to the sax what Buddy Rich is to drums.

Dillagene, Woody Herman's new vocalist, does a nice job on Five O'clock Whistle, (DECCA). She's one of the few really good girl singers around these days. Reverse is The Golden Wedding, full of jungle music and tom-toms. Okay if you like that sort of thing.... Somebody by the name of Walter Cross...
