Hey.How about talking about records/artists that you love!

How about "Everybody Loves My Baby"?

These are a few 78s that have been getting a lot of spin in my house.

Thanks - all the McCormack/Kreisler discs are winners. I love this one : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJw0BSVZJ88

Another McCormack fan. I like best his late recordings. https://youtu.be/D6mqX-mmcTs - slighter of voice perhaps, but interpretively mature.

I like Joseph C. Smith records very much. Thankfully all those Victor sides are so common.

Several of those are good for me too. For dance bands and tunes, I'd add Ray Noble, Russ Columbo, and Coon-Sanders. However a Sousa march every now and then is good for the soul.
