Re: [Phono-L] Black Patti... Black Swan
I have to agree with you Glenn. I'm a little dismayed at all the dissing of poor old Guy Lumbago here. When I was a kid, Lumbago was already pretty much of a has-been, being relegated to performing once a year on a New Year's Eve TV show. The Beatles were fab and no kid would be caught dead listening to anything his parents would remotely have liked. That included Sinatra and Basie. I thought Guy was really square and didn't know anybody who listened to him with the exception of one of my tekkie friends. I still don't know what that was about, but as I have aged and mellowed and started collecting 1930s vintage radios, I find that hearing the Royal Canadians coming thru the speaker of an Atwater Kent just seems right. Together with Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller and all the rest of the performers of the day. I have actually come to even like Carmen Lombardo's vocals. They are so uniquely cornball that they define the Lumbago sound just as much as the trademark toodling saxophones. And I think Guy's dueling dual piano treatments are some of the most upbeat and enjoyable to be heard. These two pieanny bangers were really talented, despite the corny arrangements. You won't hear many clams from their spirited playing. Guy's music is just plain fun, and I enjoy it quite a lot these days.

Re: [Phono-L] Random Acts of Nature, CHRISTCHURCH .NZ.
Thanks for the update... I'm sure we all would be very dismayed to see those wrecked collections. Keep us up to date and good luck to all of you.

I phoned a well known collector friend of mine, who lives in Summer round the Port Hills, in Christchurch. Not good I'm afraid. He cannot bare to look in the room that houses his collection! His house is a bomb site! Being one of the colonies, and dominated by the British, we have the equivalent to RCA, with the englishmens interpratation of the HMV Monarch Senior, Junior and so forth.Smashed laminated speartip oak horns' not a good sight. Considering the cabinetry on some of the more robust machines such as the Melba, and Ionic, Monarch Senior are simply mouth watering!. As for music boxe's, that is another story, so so sad. I have no idea how the Bill Dini Collection at Ferrymead stood up to the quake, nor the radio sound archives that have been based in Christchurch for some years now. They house a large collection of radio asitates, besides NZ 78rpm.Please spare a thought for Cantabrians, a week ago today at at 12.51pm. We saw New Zealands darke st day. Keep up to date with our major radionetwork newstalkzb, streamed on line, for developing stories.Cheers Mark Dawson, Napier New Zealand.
