"At Sundown" is indeed available for listening on the Red Hot Jazz Archive,
along with 16 other numbers including my favourite Walter Donaldson song,
"Little White Lies", and Gershwin's quirky "My One And Only", which hitherto
I'd only heard sung by Lee Wiley - an interesting contrast!

You can go direct to the relevant page at http://redhotjazz.com/eskimos.html,
where there's a photograph of the band in their Eskimo suits (!) and a link to
another page - http://redhotjazz.com/hreserbands.html listing *hundreds* of
titles recorded by bands with which Reser was involved.

Harry Reser is always cited by Tom (Spats) Langham as being a major influence
on his playing - now I know why.  What an incredible musician.
