This version of "Yes, we have no bananas" by the Green Bros. Novelty Band, 
gives no indication on the label that it contains a vocal refrain, but low and 
behold I just played and about half way into it, a tenor comes on and sings the 
familiar chorus to the song. Sounds very much like Billy Murray or then again 
could it be Billy Jones, could someone confirm who indeed is doing the vocal 
refrain on DD 8989 (51177)?

I forwarded your question to Lew Green. His father was one of the Green Bros. 
Lew has done some cylinder recordings for Wizard records. He also has a group 
called the New Novelty Band.
