Advertisements for March 1923 records from Victor and Columbia in the New York Times in February 1923. Victor's advertisement from February 15,1923 shows Russian bass Feodor Chaliapin recording a version of the Russian folk song "Song of the Volga Boatman" (there is a version of that song used in Punch-Out as Soda Popinski's music). A version of the hit song "Carolina in the Morning" and Paul Whiteman Orchestra's version of "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" is shown. (That would be one of the most popular songs of 1923).

You can hear Whiteman Orchestra's version of Parade here:

Columbia's February 20, 1923 advertisement shows that it has a few blues records, some classical music and opera, some show tunes, and some pop songs sung by Al Jolson and Eddie Cantor. This is the St. Louis Blues version by Ted Lewis's band advertised by Columbia (which was a song written by W.C. Handy)
youtube
And that concludes today's look at what two of the leading bandleaders of the 1920s were doing late 1922/early 1923.

Still going through my dad's vinyl. This is the oldest record I've found so far. I think 1904? All the records in the crate behind it are all from the early 1900s

TW; none i can think of!
Jeremiah Valeska: innovation, craftiness, unpredictability, someone who knows what they want
Edward Nygma: self-awareness, spontaneity, the kind of person who gets up after being knocked down and will keep chasing their goals regardless of what's in their way
Jerome Valeska: grit, persistence, someone who has a unique worldview, like an artist who can see beauty in the mundane
Victor Zsasz: independence, somebody who's unapologetically themselves, isn't afraid to speak their mind, and isn't easily shaken
Jonathan Crane: introspectiveness, someone who's their own person first, the black sheep of a group
Jervis Tetch: individuality and open-mindedness, the kind of person who's a good listener and doesn't easily blend in with a crowd
Oswald Cobblepot: reliability, the friend who waits for you to finish tying their shoes while the rest of the group walks away, imagination

We are 400 days away from January 1, 2024 when all 1923 sound recordings enter the public domain in the US. One of the bigger hits of 1923 was Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra performing a song that Whiteman co-wrote. "Wonderful One", a waltz, was recorded on January 25, 1923 and released in April.
The song was composed by Whiteman (1890-1967) and Ferde Grofe (1892-1972) and the song had lyrics by Theodora Morse (1883-1953). The Whiteman Orchestra performed song was instrumental however. The song became a standard and showed up in quite a few 1940s movies. Whiteman would record the song three times, in 1923, in 1928 using electrical microphone, and in 1959.
