Nye Mayhew & His Orchestra - Blue Roses

Tenor saxophonist Nye Mayhew did lead a band for a couple of years between 1937 and 1939. The band never broke through despite the facts that it was backed by Hal Kemp and used Hal's arranger, John Scott Trotter (who also played the piano in the band). Hugo Winterhalter played Sax. The Band had dates at both the Glen Island Casino and the Hotel Pennsylvania. However, on this 1933 recording, it is a pseudonym, according to several sources for Freddy Martin's orchestra. However, this probably is a working orchestra. The vocal is credited to Doug Newman, a pseudnonym regularly used for Dick Robertson, but that's definitely not the case here. Any feedback is welcome.
