Call of the South
From Irving Berlin's "Music Box Review"
Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra
Banjo solo - Mike Pingitore *
Recorded December 29, 1924
Victor 19557
Paul Whiteman was an important bandleader starting in 1919 and was a leader in development and popularization of dance music in the 1920s. His title, "King of Jazz," was somewhat misleading, but it was semi-jazz for the general public, though he gave many jazzmen hot solo spots.
* Note: The Victor Discography uses the spelling "Pingitore". Some later accounts use the spelling "Pingatore"
