Norman,
Yes, it is very soothing. I like waltzes as good as fox-trots.
There is something special about it when a 1920s orchestra plays a waltz. Especially when the whole band plays at once.
Just as on 2:31 to 2:54 at this tune.
Unfortunately this transfer is not mine. I wish it was. This is certainly a record I would add to my collection.
Paal.
