Henry (aka Hank) Biagini was a member of the well-known Casa Loma Orchestra. Logically, I thought I would have been able to find quite extensive information about him, but unfortunately my search turned out to be disappointing. I found strictly no biographical data. The orchestra was based in Detroit. Members consisted of: Henry Biagini (leader); George Group an Wayne Smith (trombone); Fred Ross, Jimmy Nolan and Noni Bernardi (alto); John Vido (violin); Bob Burke (piano); Cliff Johnson (tenor); Joe Lucas and Red Phillips, trumpet; John Fansher, bass; Mel Fudge, drums. The uncredited vocal on this lovely 1935 recording may well be by Bob Godet, a vocalist about whom I did I did not find any information either, except that he is best known for his vocals with Shep Fields And His Rippling Rhythm.
