Musical Meanderings By Murray Evans Hectic is the word for the ex periences of Jack Leonard these past few weeks. Leonard, it will be remembered, was until recently Tommy Dorsey’s ace vocalist. First a corporal and then a sergeant in the Army, Jack was released two weeks ago on his 28th birth day and was promptly booked at the Brooklyn Strand Theater where he made a smash hit. The same day he was notified that New York university had voted him the out standing vocalist of 1941. To make the day perfect, he signed a con tract which will put him on the air regularly every week. Lovers of the trombone should hark to the Bobby Byrne band. Byrne himself possesses the best ‘slip-horn’ tone in the business, not barring T. Dorsey the Great, ei ther. It is this writer’s consider able belief that Bobby will hoist himself to the very top of the popu larity heap during 1942. His self- styled “Byrne and His Trombyrnes” (five of them) do the neatest bit of harmonizing to date on their theme, “Danny Boy.” After all, is there anything pret tier than trombone ensemble work? Saxophones can’t touch it The instrument just hasn’t been made. Dr. F. Alton Wade of Miami uni versity was chief scientist of the recently returned Byrd Antarctic expedition.
