This month the girls get another annual royalty check from Decca. It comes to $15,000. Since "Bei Mir Bist du Schoen," the Andrews Sisters have made dozens of hit records — "Joseph, Joseph," "Hold Tight," "Beer Barrel Polka," "Oh Ma-Ma," and have sung on a flock of radio shows. When they play the New York Paramount they get $3,500 a week. With money like that, why worry?
"Probably the next time we get into a serious conference," concludes La Verne, "will be when one of us decides to get married."
(Editor's Note: But since Ken Alden talked to the Andrews Sisters, they have had several important conferences about that very subject — getting married. You probably read some of the lurid details in the newspapers. But watch next month's Radio Mirror for the story they didn't tell the papers — the first complete explanation of the family argument that set Broadway buzzing with conjectures.)
OFF THE RECORD Some Like It Sweet
Naughty Waltz; Missouri Waltz
(Decca 2843), Guy Lombardo. The neglected waltz should recapture some popularity with this excellent platter, measurably enhanced by some grand twin piano playing.
Little Red Fox; Fit To Be Tied (Columbia 35295), Kay Kyser. A merry musical chase introducing Little Audrey, the pip-squeak soloist.
After All; Blue Rain (Victor 26418), Tommy Dorsey. Vocalist Jack Leonard returns to warble two soothing ballads. Superior dance music.
Whose Theme Song? (Royale 1795), Richard Himber. A grand disc for parties, as the theme melodies of Dorsey, Shaw, Lombardo, Kyser, Goodman, Miller are veiled in mystery. Toughest one for this reviewer to guess was Himber's.
Careless; Vagabond Dreams (Bluebird 10520), Glenn Miller. Since the trombonist swept to public acclaim he has favored sweet tunes. Here are two syrupy ones fringed with distinctive color tones. Vocalist Eberle is improving.
Some Like It Swing
Hot Dog Joe; Many Dreams Ago
(Varsity 8082), Van Alexander. The liveliest novelty tune in many a month spiritedly interpreted by Butch Stone.
Aunt Hagar's Blues; 57th Street Drag (Bluebird 10513), Bob Chester. Strictly for the solid senders. Allaround good work by the rhythm section and the saxes.
El Rancho Grande; Speaking of Heaven (Columbia 35295), Eddy Duchin. Not strictly a swing tune but definitely an out-of-the-ordinary Duchin disc. Lou Sherwood is the gay caballero.
To Ken Alden, Facing the Music RADIO MIRROR Magazine 122 E. 42nd Street, New York.
