Band,
Pop and Jazz
A.k.a. Hal Stuart & His Gang The Manhattan Madcaps The New Yorkers (2)

"Carl Fenton" began as a pseudonym for Walter Haenschen, who was Brunswick's arranger and first musical director during the 1920s. Walter Haenschen subcontracted the "Fenton" sessions to various free-lance musicians, most notably Harry Reser but also Bennie Krueger. In 1926, Reser's violinist, Rubie Greenberg, began directing the Fenton sessions for Brunswick. When Walter Haenschen retired in 1927, Greenberg acquired rights to the Fenton pseudonym and released records under this name on other labels.
