Several of the tunes there are also available here in much better quality (straight from cds), or from my own 78s. Next month and February I plan to get back to my Chick Bullock sides and post them here.Chester Proudfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03314833191621952278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070935607721414276.post-44887420825073701192010-12-16T23:06:24.367-05:002010-12-16T23:06:24.367-05:00Chester, dunno if you're aware of archive.org,...Chester, dunno if you're aware of archive.org, but that site has tons of old 78sm for free download. They don't have a real high bitrate for download, but remember the lo-fi nature here. I downloaded a bunch of Ozzie's big band there after seeing your post. They have a good search engine and lots of content. I looked and they don't have collections for Chick Bullock like they do for some artists, but here's what they have for Chick:<br />http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=chick%20bullockvilstefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183356136648221026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070935607721414276.post-85446045459813411352010-12-12T21:30:31.373-05:002010-12-12T21:30:31.373-05:00Vilstef, I saw that ASV cd but opted for the cheap...Vilstef, I saw that ASV cd but opted for the cheaper price. ;-) I also have an LP that I've ripped and will be posting, I just don't recall what it includes off-hand. I noted Harriet's maiden name, but omitted that she was also in Follow The Fleet with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, as well as many other films of the era. Without cheating a look at Imdb, I think she was in a Falcon movie, too.<br /><br />David, that's a cool way to spread the music around. I took a look at my remaining Dorsey material. I have some early '30s Jazz Oracle material, the 5-cd 'complete' box set with Frank Sinatra, the Clambake 7 cd, and two other "Best of" type discs. Neither has the title you asked about, but I do have Indian Summer with Jack Leonard (who I thought sang well).Chester Proudfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03314833191621952278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070935607721414276.post-29299666594973863492010-12-12T09:19:29.310-05:002010-12-12T09:19:29.310-05:00Chester, I coupled "Roses in December" h...Chester, I coupled "Roses in December" here with Ozzie's "Jingle Bells" found at Big 10-Inch and sent it to friends as an Ozzie & Harriet Christmas. You've got a wonderful blog here. Thanks. Do you by any chance have a CD with Tommy Dorsey's "Guess Ill Go Back Home This Summer" made in 1939 and featuring the oft-maligned Jack Leonard on vocal. It was issued on that French series devoted to "Jazz Classics."David Federmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15034765710506561496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4070935607721414276.post-86946955799556181932010-12-11T21:53:00.320-05:002010-12-11T21:53:00.320-05:00Ozzie also did a very nice version of Dream a Litt...Ozzie also did a very nice version of Dream a Little Dream of Me which was a solo hit for Cass Elliott.

(Noth Dakota Moon.) This was several years after Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet ended, so I knew who he was, I only knew about the big band from my Mother. I compared him to Rudy Vallee whom I was slightly aware of only as a singer. Mom said, "No, Ozzie is much better. Some years later after hearing both, I'd agree with Mom. Somewhere, I have an ASV CD of the Best of Ozzie and Harriet's band. (Her maiden name was Hilliard, and her Father was Chief of Police in Des Moines, Iowa many years ago.)vilstefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14183356136648221026noreply@blogger.com
