An ongoing commentary by the anonymous I about that rumbunctious rapscallion, Colonel Reginald R. Farquhear, Royal Camel Corps (rtd.) whose trials and tribulations are found in 'The Travel Journal of Colonel R Farquhear 1886-1911', and including occasional commentary and repartee by the Colonel himself.

One Of The Colonel's Favourites For The Edison

The Colonel, a sometime crooner around many a lady's parlour is a great fan of the Bratislava Hot Serenaders who produce world class hot dance music of the 20s, 30s and 40s. This orchestra consists of 19 musicians including 5 vocalists and performs Jazz Age numbers in authentic period style.


Crank up the old His Master's Voice and toss The Broken Record on the turntable to listen to the sweet sounds of Japanese Mammy, East St. Louis Toodle-oo and Jungle Nights In Harlem. I can guarantee you'll be instantly transported to the sassiest nightspot in old Europa. Yeah!!!
