Singers return to Music-Hall after an absence of only two months. Sam, of course, is among the most popular of radio singers, and with Elsie Carlisle , was one of the great features of Ambrose's Band. They sang together last year at Radiolympia.
Billy Bennett has just returned from tour in the revue King Folly in which he was principal comedian. He is shortly to be seen in the film Soft Lights and Sweet Music with Ambrose and his
Band.
Harry Shalson has written over 200 songs and has been singing on records and on the halls for the past eight years. He did many Variety broadcasts at the old Savoy Hill studio. His partner, Noel ' Chappie ' D'Amato, was for ten years leader with Jack Hylton 's Band and first vocalist on Hylton records. He was for eighteen months at the Dorchester Hotel.
Lily Morris is well-known to Music-
Hall listeners. She broadcast in the Royal Command Performance of 1928. She is the very essence of the halls and possesses, by the way, a pair of ear-rings once worn by Sarah Siddons.
The double act of Abe and Mawruss is one of John Sharman 's inspirations. Each is a former star of Hebrew humour. Sharman has brought them together and they are to give their first broadcast tonight.
