Here's one all you fans missed!

9. MATT MONRO (aka Al Jordan) - Harry Leader

Robert - Check out the male vocalists with these bands - George Paxton, Ted Weems, Lionel Hampton......They became famous solo artists!

Maybe Female Vocalists will be easier in the future!

Here's a Bonus----Russ Columbo - Gus Arnheim (1930)....That's over 80 years ago & none of us were even born yet!

I did remember Matt Henry, but just kept forgetting to check the facts as there was another before Harry Leader I believe. We met his wife at Mickie's funeral. :?
