Volume 188: The Brothers Dorsey Shine

Let’s get back to some of the big band and early swing my dad listened to a lot. And this record is a real find because of the two main musicians. One played a brass instrument, one played reeds. One ended up just a little more famous than the other. But they were brothers. And they had their famous beginnings in a band with the family name that recorded in the early to mid-1930s. So get ready to hear a compilation of some of the last studio recordings for this sibling duo that began on 78 RPM Shellac and ended up on this 33 ⅓ RPM Vinyl in Volume 188: The Brothers Dorsey Shine.
