Description
Was Mae West really the ‘lay of the land’? Here’s a novel “adult” revision of the old Frankie & Johnnie tale, one of four titles by singer Beth Challis issued on Victor (2 of them) and Bluebird (the other 2) as “Peggy Johnson & her Orchestra.” Rust-Johnson-Shirley & DAHR reveal no names of the session musicians or leader. Most recordings on which Challis appeared had been issued between 1926 and 1928. See also the flip side “Miss Otis Regrets” ( https://youtu.be/T8Lv3tp-tT0 ).
Transferred from 78rpm Victor 24691 - The Story Of Frankie And Johnnie (Parker) by Peggy Johnson and Her Orchestra, vocal by Peggy Johnson, recorded in NYC July 18, 1934 .
