Herb Gordon & His Hotel Ten Eyck Whispering Orchestra-I Could Do It For You

  • 13 years ago
Gordon's recording career started in 1928. The records were credited Herb Gordon's Hotel Adelphia Whispering Orchestra. The Hotel Adelphia was located in Philadelphia. When the band returned to the Brunswick studios in May, 1929, it was billed as Herb Gordon And His Hotel Ten Eyck Whispering Orchestra. The Hotel Ten Eyck was located in Albany, New York. The band didn't record until 1933 (4 sides for ARC) which were issued on several of the company's dime store record labels. On these records the band is simply listed as Herb Gordon And His Orchestra. Old newspaper radio listings indicate that the band was regularly featured on late evening broadcasts on the NBC Red Network in 1931 and 1932. The band also was featured in late evening broadcasts on CBS in 1938. This excellent record was made in 1929. Vocal by Eddy Thomas.
