Crankin' It Up: Seasonal Music



This is the time of year when we think of bobbing for apples, husking corn, and of course, going to a barn dance. "The Circle No.2" on this Victor record from 1918, was played by the Victor Military Band. Why a military band is playing a country dance, I don't know, but it would still be good for kicking up the dust in the barn. This is one of Fannie Gilbert's records; I never knew she was such a party animal.
