$Al Jolson & Isham Jones: \"California, Here I Come\"$

Al Jolson & Isham Jones: "California, Here I Come"
Posted by: amdubin

Video duration: 180 seconds

Played from acoustic Brunswick 2569 (recorded in Chicago January 17, 1924), Al Jolson is partnered by the Isham Jones Orchestra, and with Bud De Sylva, ukulele, in the famous tune "California, Here I Come". Again, my Columbia BII Disc Graphophone does the honors. Apologies for the truncated introduction, but that was the only way I could fit this within the 3-minute max on my camera...
