Jack Albin & His Hotel Pennsylvania Music - Hurt, Crown 1930

Hotel Pennsylvania Music was the Jack Albin Orchestra which had a long term engagement at New York City’s Hotel Pennsylvania during the early 1930s. Their vocalist was very often Bill Coty. Later in the decade, the hotel’s phone number would be immortalized in song by another resident band, the Glenn Miller Orchestra with its hit “Pennsylvania 6-5000.” It remains the same to this day! In 1930’s/40’s one of the most popular nightclubs in New York was Café Rouge at the Hotel. It was home to the Big Bands at their height. Happily, the Hotel Pennsylvania still stands and operates as a hotel - though its once grand lobby suffers from a rather tacky “modernization.”

After the election was called for Obama people on my street gathered outside blocking traffic and eventually walked through the neighborhood partying in honor of Barack Obama.
