Records of Monte Rey, radio's romantic singer

Few dance-hand vocalists are more popular than Monte Rey whose broadcasts were for so long a feature of Joe Loss's band. But all good things must come to an end: and, much as both regretted it, the offers Monte received as a solo act on the halls were too attractive to turn down. Their old partnership broke up in August.
Monte Rey, Scottish lyric tenor, went to Germany and Italy to learn the languages, both of which he speaks as well as sings he met Geraldo who heard him sing and asked him to try a tango. Monte was soon broadcasting in 'Chateau Madrid' and 'Dancing Through.'

Jack Jackson and his Band
Jack Jackson rose to the top of his profession as a band-leader when he formed his band in 1933 and succeeded Ambroses
Blue Lyres at the Dorchester Hotel. After six very successful years at the Dorchester, during which time he gave numerous broadcasts, he left in March 1939 to take his own band round the halls. Soon after the outbreak of war he threw all this up with the idea of joining the Royal Air Force, but unfortunately, from his point of view, he was turned down .for medical reasons. Nowadays Jack is kept extremely busy, for besides running his dance orchestra at the May Fair Hotel he does a job of work as an engineer during the day.
