Hi everyone!
Here's a couple of nice songs for you! "Down Kentucky Way" and "Get Out and Get Under the Moon", both by British music hall star G.H. Elliott, billed as "The Chocolate Coloured Coon".
Apart from being popular on stage, he was a very prolific recording artist. He made his first record in 1904, and his last in 1960!
Both of these songs are from a little 8 inch Edison Bell Radio disc (number 892). The orchestra is probably a unit directed by Harry Hudson, the musical director at Edison Bell.
Enjoy!
