1932-01-09 Anson Weeks and His Orchestra (017) First Song - Lazy Day

One of the most popular bands of the early 1930s, with transcribed club performances on west-coast stations, moving eastward as the decade progressed. These were not big-band remotes or airchecks, but they certainly equaled the remotes in quality and appeal. The date provided is the likely date of the performance and recording; the show would have been broadcast days or weeks later. However, many such performances were broadcast live on an originating station, with the transcriptions sent to other stations for later broadcast. Weeks was a prominent feature on KGO in San Francisco, and these recordings are believed to have originated there, though it is uncertain whether they were broadcast live.
