Notes
Johnson and Shirley: "Tommy Weir and John Lawrence have been reported as being the same person, but the [Columbia] file cards make no mention of this."
Personnel shown for this master derive from Brooks/Rust, which lists Ed Blossom and his New Englanders as the performer but also notes that this session "may be by Ben Selvin and his Orchestra, but there is no evidence of this in the [Columbia] files." Johnson and Shirley note the session as by the Bar Harbor Society Orchestra, performing under the pseudonym Ed Blossom and his New Englanders.
