""Phil Harris may be known as the voice of the loveable bear Balloo in Disney's animated Jungle Book feature or Jack Benny's musical sidekick on Radio, but here he's the comic Bandleader that takes us back in time to a night in Hollywood. The Cocoanut Grove itself is the star here (featured in the recent film "the Aviator") and we are along for the ride. Phil gives us great vaudeville novelty in his music and terrific energy. If you want to travel back in time, turn off the lights and turn this disc on. They have two other Grove discs as well, equally good, featuring Gus Arnheim and Jimmy Grier.""

"A great example of early 30's Hotel Dance Music. Phil Harris was a great personality and band leader. It shows in these recordings."
