Little is known about this Crown house band. Pianist Russ Carlson led a series of fine dance-band recordings for them during 1929-1933. The soloists (who probably include trumpeter Mannie Klein, trombonist Miff Mole, clarinetist Tony Parenti, and tenor saxophonist Larry Binyon) mostly played melodically. This excellent record was made in 1930. Outstanding vocal by a vocalist credited as Harold Richards, who actually is Harold Van Emburgh.
