Lonely Eyes
Words and music by Benny Davis and Harry Akst
Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra
Vocal chorus by Jack Fulton, Charles Gaylord and Austin Young
Recorded December 21, 1926
Victor 20418
The orchestra had been touring in the Chicago area and Paul Whiteman leased Orchestra Hall, the home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, for recording sessions on December 20 through 22 of 1926. The usual practice of recording a dance band was to use a studio where every effort was made to control echo and reverberation. On this recording it is immediately apparent that the recording was made in a large auditorium. The vocal chorus is sung by Jack Fulton, Charles Gaylord and Austin Young, often referred to as the "Sweet Trio" in contrast to the "Rhythm Boys" who sang with a more jazzy style.
