Kay Kyser recently took his
band to New York and left Ginny
Simms on the west coast, there
by terminating one of the most
beloved associations in the music
world. Ginny is being groomed for
starring roles in forthcoming RKO
productions.
To fill Ginny’s place, or try to
at least, Kyser has hired two at
tractive bits of feminity to handle
the vocals. One of them is a tall,
striking brunette called Dorothy
Dunn, and the other is a reverse
type, a cute, co-eddish blonde an
swering to Trudy Erwin. One of
Kay’s best records of late is “Aft
er Tomorrow.”
Max Henry, Aggieland’s ace
drummer, does a nice job of hide
beating on “A Man And His
Drums.” That number runs strong
ly to drums anyway, with just
enough melody interspersed to
prevent too much of a good thing
in the way of drum over-dosage.
Entirely surrounded by his pots
and pans, Max goes to work in
earnest on the breaks, and before
the last bar is reached, has work
ed himself to a frenzy and frazzle
at the same time. But it leaves
Musical Meanderings
, By Murray Evans
all exponents of jive relaxed and
satisfied, and so Max is happy,
albeit exhausted.
Oftentimes, after such a strenu
ous tune, Aggie bandsman Bob
Russell sits in for Max while he
catches his breath. Bob does all
right for himself too. On ballad
tunes especially he does himself
proud, what with a perfectly
steady four-four rhythm beat, the
right sort of sock-cymballing for
slow melodies, and good brush
work.
The Aggies brass band’s new
march tune by the late George
Perfect harks back a bit of some
what to an old popular number
about ten years ago. Remember
“Gee, But It’s Good To See A
Friend From Your Home Town”?
However, it resembles it just
enough to get all the good points
and leave the bad, leaving it a
very fine tune indeed.
Murder Barometer
Rises, Business Booms
Finding the lust to kill most
rampant during boom years, a crim
inologist concludes the “murder
barometer” is due to rise with bus
iness indices.
“We found 494 murders were
committed in the boom years of
1925-29—only 53 less than the to
tal for the 10-year depression
period from 1930 through 1939,”
he reports.
Lunden doesn’t maintain his fig
ures are indicative of a national
trend, hut statistics compiled by
other crime scientists in other sec
tions of the nation also have shown
more murders during boom years.
