Offered here are a couple swing tunes performed the Dartmouth College Barbary Coast Orchestra. Night and Day sounds a lot like a Glenn Miller arrangement with a little twist. Alamo sort has a Dorsey feel to it. These are studio recordings done Dec 7, 1942 at a recording studio in Hanover, New Hampshire. Not a lot of information about this orchestra during the war years. Can't find these tunes referenced anywhere. Might be rare. Just got a 1943 AEGIS (Dartmouth College Yearbook) and here is the band: The band members are listed as: Saxophones Rudolph G. Whitten, Russell E. Chase, William M. Stahl, Charles R. Lazo Trumpets Leon J. P. Chapman, George W. Miller, Walter H. Olin Trombones James E. Rudnick, Norman L. Simpson Piano Herbert F. Storfer BASS Eugene Roitman Drums Kenneth F. Eldredge Listen and enjoy!
