Description: ' The Isham Jones band made a series of popular records for Brunswick during the 1920s & 1930’s. From 1929 to 1932, his Brunswick recordings became even more sophisticated with offbeat arrangements by Gordon Jenkins and others. During this period, Jones started featuring violinist Eddie Stone as one of his regular vocalists. Stone had an unusual, almost humorous tone to his voice. In 1932, he added Joe Martin, another of the band's violinists, as a frequent vocalist. His other vocalists included Frank Sylvano, Billy Scott and Arthur Jarrett. In August 1932, Jones signed with Victor, and these records are considered among the best arranged and performed commercial dance band records of the Depression era. Victor's recording technique was suited to Jones' band. In October 1932, he teamed up with the Three X Sisters in New York who had just departed from CBS radio. They recorded "experimental" songs for RCA Victor in which Jones began to fuse jazz and early swing music. He stayed with Victor until July 1934, when he signed with Decca. After he left Decca in 1936, he again retired and his orchestra was taken over by band member Woody Herman.
