This was during the period- between his Victor and Columbia recordings- he was under contract for Durium's "Hit of the Week" label. In fact, this was the last of seven sides he recorded for them {in June 1932, the "Hit of the Week" releases were discontinued; Rudy was at Columbia that August}.
I am not convinced this was his Connecticut Yankees on the Hit Of The Week recordings as it has a distinct and different sound…. From recordings where they are specifically credited
Did he really have his own orchestra? And did he really play the saxophone?
@@jourwalis-8875 Yes he lead his own orchestra starting in 1927 going into the 40s. He also did play saxophone in many of their recordings.

Rudy slightly altered some members of his orchestra at the time- but most of those who were with him at Victor were still a part of his group.
