1941 The Astor R
oof, Astor Hotel, New York, New York (May 20 - July 15)
Tommy Dorsey and his Orchestra w/Frank Sinatra
DORSEY BREAKS ASTOR RECORD
“New York - Tommy Dorsey’s band has broken all records at the Hotel Astor and
is doing the
most sensational business of any band in the greater New York area, according
to Bob
Christenberry, manager of the Astor. While Gene Krupa fared poorly at the Penn,
and with hotel
business, generally speaking, seriously off, Dorsey’s terrific draw has kept
the ropes up every
night without a single miss since he opened late in May. Tommy is pretty well
satisfied with his
lineup now, although he has been seeking a clarinetist to fill the chair he
left empty when
Johnny Mince pulled out two months ago. Will Bradley’s crew will follow Tommy’s
at the Astor in
July.”
