After choosing these three sides I realised that they had all been recorded on a Thursday, hence the name I've given this video -- Hot Thursdays!

First is that wonderful little band led by Brian Lawrance at one of London's top restaurants. Brian was not only an attractive and much-in-demand vocalist, but he was also a fine hot violinist, as you can witness on this neat number from 1935. This is followed by the popular Six Swingers led so ably by one of the finest and most versatile British musicians of the 1930s -- George Scott Wood. The third number is a bit of a mystery as the identity of the musicians, apart from the singer, is unknown. The Bugle Call Raggers were formed by Decca in 1935, under the direction of Scott Wood, to make a couple of discs copying Harry Roy's style. This second and last session under the same name took place in early 1939, but seems to bear no relation to its 1935 predecessors.

Originally recorded for Decca and Columbia in the 1930s, these 10" 78rpm discs have been remastered by this user.
