jaimeeduardo 9th Nov 2017		A1 track title is: The Tales of Hoffmann Barcarolle. The Barcarolle is the best-known selection from the opera The Tales of Hoffmann. Originally a vocal duet, often performed as an instrumental.



Graham7 14th Oct 2015		From Mike Thomas's Dance Band Encyclopaedia: "These records were made for Selfridges during 1933 & 34. The selections were chosen by Christopher Stone (usually referred to as Britain's first "disc jockey") and were pressed by Decca using masters also available on Decca, Panachord and Winner records" The Colthurst Orchestra are credited on another record (S.615) as being a pseudonym for Hastings Municipal Orchestra. This is one of the records missing from his list, so I hope he sees this.
