The BBC Dance Orchestra Dir. by Henry Hall - Play To Me, Gipsy (Vacek/ Kennedy) Columbia 1934

NOTE: It's a British version of a Czech tango "Cikánka" (A Gipsy Girl; composed in 1931by Karel Vacek, a vocalist, trumpet player, trombonist and bandleader) and internationally better known under a German title "Du Schwarzer Zigeuner". First recorded in Prague by Dvorsky's dance orchestra it became enormous success throughout Europe, saving the Czech branch of Ultraphon records from the bankrupcy.
