Description
This is a very unusual and rare 1915 12" Columbia by American-born Music Hall star Ella Shields. She was called upon by Columbia to 'cover' HMV's Original Cast recordings from the revue 'Watch Your Step' which were made by the show's star, Ethel Levey. Being also American and also a contralto she does a fine job! She sings the rare Irving Berlin song 'Settle Down in A One-Horse Town' on 12" Columbia 548, whilst on the reverse Dorothy Russell sings the even rarer Irving Berlin song 'What Is Love'. CONDITION: E
