Durium Dance Band - What Would You Do?

This appears to be a pseudonym for Arthur Lally, used on the British issues made by the company that marketed the 'Hit Of The Week' discs in the USA. Lally's orchestra is one of those almost totally British dance bands of the early 1930s. Like Harry Bidgood's, Arthur Rosebury's, Jay Wilbur's, Jack Leon's or the long string of others, Arthur Lally's orchestra was a magnificent, highest class dance band. Arthur Lally was a saxophonist and he was present on records predominantly on Decca label and sometimes under aliases (Decca-Dents, The Rhythm Maniacs). This brilliant side was recorded in 1932. Vocal by Sam Browne.
