	From the Author
		Perry's earliest recordings during the 1930s were with the Ted Weems Band on the Decca record label but the hallmark of his recording career, and the legacy he left for future generations, is with those recordings he made with the RCA Victor Label exclusively.
		Other recordings are emerging from his early radio broadcasts in the 1940s as will no doubt come from his years on television, but its the RCA recordings which really tell the story of Perry Como and his masterful artistry.
		The RCA Records Label, now owned by Bertelsmann, one of the largest corporations of its kind in the world, is seemingly hamstrung between the pirates who claim "public-domain" status and the public who download and burn their music freely without payments to the labels or artists of any kind.

	Rosario Bourdon - Biographies - The Virtual Gramophone
		Rosario's first recordings for the Victor Talking Machine Co. were made in 1905 to replace some earlier cello recordings made by Victor Sorlin.
		Bourdon was kept very busy at Victor, serving in many additional capacities: arranging music, providing piano accompaniments for other Victor artists, and conducting the Victor Concert Orchestra, the Victor Symphony Orchestra, the Victor Salon Orchestra and, at times, Sousa's Band.
		While Bourdon is known to have performed or conducted at least 141 titles for Victor, his role as an arranger for many recordings makes his contribution to Victor even greater.

		Victor Sylvester plays old-fashion ballroom music with a small dance band, heavy on the single lead violin, and this is exactly what it is.
		The CD should work quite well if played at a dance as the mix is typically in blocks of 2 tracks per dance style, although a bit uneven in that there are only 3 Tango tracks and 1 Viennese Waltz, the rest being made up mainly by Quickstep (8) and Foxtrot (5) and Waltz (4).
		Unless you are a Victor Sylvestor fan, this is not really a "listening" CD although the digitally remastering has been done extremely well.

		When we were recording, the arrangements were all cut up {so they wouldn't run too long for the 78 rpm discs}.
		Then with the Goldkette Orchestra, in April 1926, it was electrical when I recorded "Lonesome and Sorry." But as I remember it, there was only one microphone and {upright bassist} Steve Brown played within two feet of it, with his bass right down there.

		For it is not merely despite the limitations of the early recording industry, but because of them that so many of the Goldkette recordings are a delight to hear.
		While various versions of the Goldkette orchestra continued to record until 1929, the original Goldkette unit did its last live performance, on September 18, 1927.

		He made records for the Edison Phonograph Company with Edison himself doing the recording on one of the first cylinders.

		Most collectors and critics agree that Morton reached his creative zenith with the Victor recordings made in Chicago in 1926 and 1927.
		According to Harrison Smith (the West Indian sharing office with Jelly mentioned in Lomax’ book), 18 of the 26 tunes he recorded for Victor between December, 1929 and October, 1930 and three of the titles recorded for General in 1940 were stolen.
		Later, Smith got royalties from Victor when these tunes were reissued in the Vintage LP series and was also permitted to issue these four titles as an EP on his "Mortonia" label.
