Platter Chatter

One of the best harmony num- bers issued by Columbia is Oools! Look-a There Ain't She Pretty by_the_Charioteers.

The record has not been made available locally and I was Indeed doubly fortunate in obtaining a copy atter hearing this quartette sing

this tune at the London Palladium where they appeared

on the same bill as "Dead Pat" Virginia O'Brien and the dune- ing Berry Brothers.

of the record The other alte What Did He Suy, is also a nice plece

faithfully reproduced on WRX. You can get Ray Ellington's version of Look- There mi Columbla but this can only please those who have not heard the Charioteers platter during list Friday's Teen Time.

Norma Stevena is so fond of this number that she will repeat it this week.

Another repent will be John Love With

Teen Agers Choice Teen Time has certainly scored with a number of "firsts" notabity Vanglin Munroe's The Maharajah Or, Magudore: Red Ingle's Scrutan Yob; Bing's So In Love; Tommy Dorsey's Down By The Station; Bing and Joe Venuti's Ain't Bad Don' Nothin'.
