Description
Here is a Melotone credited to Cliff Martin, a pseudonym for one of the ARC-Brunswick studio bands. The songs are “What a Perfect Combination” which Eddie Cantor introduced in his Goldwyn film The Kid From Spain and “In the Dim, Dim Dawning,” a minor hit for Paul Whiteman on Victor. Both were recorded on November 22, 1932. The vocals, according to Brian Rust, are by Pinky Pearl. Wear, scratches, rim chip to groove. Condition V
NOTE: I grade records by a rating system that has been standard in the industry for decades. Still, it can be a subjective undertaking. I am more likely to grade by how the record reproduces aurally (I use a 78 Shure cartridge with a 1950s Voice of Music turntable that has been fit into a 1946 Magnavox Belvedere radio-phonograph) than by how it looks visually. Sometimes a record that appears substantially worn plays very well and sometimes the opposite is true.
