Kay Sera 29th Aug 2017		78 RPM Carroll And Gorman - Canasta / The Little Hotel Down The Street	These two sides, "Little Hotel" and "Canasta" were indeed released as an album of 10" 78s under the title "Two Knights in a Nightclub (possibly 'Knightclub')". My father doubtless saw them perform on a business trip to Florida in the late 40s or early 50s and brought home the album as a show souvenir. Of course, my Dad also saw a great deal of vaudeville in New York in the early 20th century. We played those records over and over- the ethnic humor being typical of the era, the songs were extremely clever and well written and performed. That album will doubtless show up when I clear out my attic this winter. Other titles I remember: "Far Rockaway", "The Bassetts Overhead" (boardinghouse humor), "Los Angeles", and the referenced "First Time in Miami". Seems like sooner or later everything shows up on the internet!
