There's not much information about the artist except that Otomaru was a Japanese singer, born December 8, 1906, Tokyo, Japan - died January 18, 1976, Setagaya City, Tokyo, Japan.
I'd be grateful if anyone could fill in the blanks.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I have.
Best wishes,

Performed by: Heinz Wehner mit seinem Tanzorchester
Full Song Title: Du und ich und die Liebe
Recorded in: Berlin, 1938
Heinz (Heinrich) Wehner (born May 21, 1908 in Obstfeld in Westphalia – died most likely in January 1945 near Landsberg an der Warthe) was a popular German jazz musician, band leader and with his Telefunken Swing Orchestra was considered one of the top European Jazz bands of its time.
Wehner had been studying music at the Hanover Conservatory since he was twelve and recognized his talent as a violinist and trumpet soloist; Wehner, enthusiastic about the jazz of the 1920s, initially founded a trio in 1925, which he was able to expand into an octet over the next few years. He soon performed with this ensemble not only in the Hanover region, but also in the Bergisches Land and on Norderney.
In 1933 he got the opportunity to perform in the renowned Düsseldorf dance palace Tabaris. In the same year he performed with a six-piece bar band in the Berlin Ritz Bar. In 1934 he could be heard in the Europahaus at the Anhalter Bahnhof in Berlin, where many well-known jazz and entertainment orchestras were guests at the time. Shortly before this performance, Wehner had been able to win over the well-known Willy Berking as a trombonist, as well as Benny de Weille and the pianist Helmuth Wernicke. From then on he had great success with American swing numbers. As early as 1935, Telefunken, one of the largest German record companies, invited him to his first studio recordings.
The Heinz Wehner Telefunken Swing Orchestra included Herbert Müller (clarinet/alto saxophone), Willy Berking (trombone), Kurt Hoffmann (trombone), Ewald Meyer, Artur Flömer, Helmuth Wernicke (piano), Hermann Scholz, Ronny Niepel and the Austrian Theo Ferstl (trumpet and arrangement), who joined the newly founded German Dance and Entertainment Orchestra (DTU) in 1942. In addition to directing, Wehner usually also took on the singing roles in English and German.
Wehner became internationally known through public appearances, recordings and radio. In issue 12/1937 of the US jazz magazine Down Beat, the critic Dick McBougall described the Telefunken Orchestra in the jazz magazine as the best band in the Nazi Reich. Similar praise also came from Sweden. From this point, Heinz Wehner was one of the most popular German-speaking swing musicians in Europe alongside Teddy Stauffer, which was also reflected in the number of his recordings.
In the year of his marriage, 1941, Wehner was sent to Norway to conduct a Wehrmacht orchestra for the Oslo Soldiers Station to look after the troops and accompanied Lale Andersen in 1942. But he continued to play regularly at the Delphi Filmpalast in Berlin during his leave from the front and he also kept recording swing records until the very end. He stayed in Norway with his Wehrmacht orchestra until 1944; then he was transferred to the Eastern Front via occupied Czechoslovakia. A recording made at the end of 1944 with the orchestra of the Czech jazz musician Karel Vlach in Prague is considered to be his last recording. Heinz Wehner was last seen during rearguard action in the Landsberg an der Warthe area on January 21, 1945. In 1958 he was officially declared dead.
