Cocoanut Grove Ambassadors, Volume 1

Volume 1 of the Cocoanut Grove Ambassadors! When those who celebrate Hollywood's Golden Age reflect back on the halcyon days of the early 1930s, one particular nightspot comes immediately to mind: the Cocoanut Grove at Los Angeles' Ambassador Hotel. This lavishly appointed club, part of the 23-acre Ambassador resort, was decorated in Moroccan style, featured full-sized palm trees, and spotlighted smooth musical entertainment provided by a series of popular dance orchestras. Thanks to the Transcription Company of America, which recorded quarter-hour shows in the style of the live remote broadcasts of the time, we can today experience what it was like to spend an evening at the stylish Cocoanut Grove. Return to the elegant days of the 1930s in this ten-hour set of rare and fully restored broadcasts.
