1010 That Lovely Night in Budapest Ray Noble Orchestra Peter De Rose Sam Lewis New York January 8, 1936 Aircheck 12" Record, Memory Lane MLMCD024 (CD) This was supplied by collector Tom Bumbera. The original source was a record from the estate of songwriter Peter DeRose, who co-wrote the song with Sam Lewis. Tom tells us, "'Budapest' is from a professionally-recorded (80 RPM for some reason) disc made by Super-Sound Reproductions, 15 W. 46th St., New York NY. I assume either DeRose or his publisher paid to have the tune recorded off the air." The Ray Noble band did not record this for Victor (although Tommy Dorsey did, as did trumpeter-bandleader Bob Pope for Bluebird). This is from an episode of the CBS "Refreshment Time" show, sponsored by Coca-Cola, broadcast between 9:30 and 10:00 p.m. EST and originating from CBS's flagship station, WABC.
