Savoy Hotel Orpheans 1932-1945 Disc #3 CD353C

Carroll Gibbons was American born (Jan.4,1903) and raised in Clinton, Massachusetts. By 1921 he found his way to London's Royal Academy of Music and by 1924 was engaged with the Boston Orchestra at the Savoy Hotel. Liking Britain, he remained there, later becoming co-leader of the Savoy Orpheans recording for Columbia and the leader of the New MayFair Orchestra, which recorded for HMV. In 1929, Gibbons appeared in the British film Splinters as Carroll Gibbons and His Masters Voice Orchestra. He returned to the U.S.over 1930/1931 to work as staff composer for MGM Studiosin Hollywood. Upon his return to England he took over the Savoy Hotel Orpheans and also recorded as Carroll Gibbons and his Boy Friends, featuring vocals by Hildegarde. Jack Plant was born in Partington, near Manchester on 26th August 1896. He first started singing as a member of the choir at the local Congregational Church. Called up for war service in 1914, he was three-and-a-half years in France. He sang there, entertaining his fellow servicemen in Concert Parties.After the war he joined the Manchester Bloom Street Choir before moving to London to study voice with Webster Miller, a leading tenor at the Beecham Opera House. Jack's voice was more suitable for light vocals so he took up chorus work and toured with musical comedy companies up to 1928. Maurice Elwin, well-known with London bandleaders, introduced Jack to dance bands. Soon Jack was gaining a following and in 1929, signed on with the Savoy Hotel Orpheans and also subbed for Pat O'Malley with the Jack Hylton Band although he Jack appeared with Hylton at the London Palladium he was nevera regular singer with Hylton. A historic Jack Hylton broadcast to America on 15th December 1931 gave him really good exposure and a stint with Sydney Kyte and his Piccadilly Hotel band in 1935. He also sang with Mantovani, Ambrose and Henry Hall's Orchestra - again entertaining the troops on an ENSA tour and broadcasting on the Forces Programme. Less well known about him was that he also played piano and duetted with Billy Mayerl. South African pianist Harry Jacobson was a friend of two other S.A's - Raie Da Costa and Al Bowlly.
