Dear Hal,
Regarding: >Does anybody know if Spike Jones played drums in that group [the
'Other Orchestra], or did he stand out in front? I'm curious because the
drumming on that record ["When Yuba Played the Rhumba on the Tuba"] was
quite good.<
The drummer on the Standard Transcription (29 April 1946) and Victor (6 May
1946) record dates for this 'other orchestra' tune was Frank Carlson, who
was with the Spike Jones' band from Feb to May 1946.
Yes, him! The famous Frank Carlson who made those wonderful sides with Woody
Herman (1936-1942).
Kind regards,
Bill.
