Clyde Doerr - What Do We Do On A Dew-Dew-Dewy Day

Clyde Doerr was one of the most active saxophone players in the 1920's. He began working professionally in a Detroit dance band, then continued his formal studies on violin at King Conservatory in San Jose. By 1919 he blew saxophone in a combo at Techau's Tavern in San Francisco. This was where the superb bandleader Art Hickman heard Doerr one night, leading to an invitation to join Hickman's outfit. The Biltmore Hotel was happy to host this ensemble phenomenon and recording began at Columbia. By the mid-twenties Doerr also formed Clyde Doerr & His Orchestra, (mainly) recording sides for Victor, Columbia and Edison. This catchy tune was recorded in 1927. The vocalist sounds like I. Kaufman.
