I was sure i posted this before but since the video seems to have disappeared, here it is again. In 1912 Lanin played in Herbert's orchestra. He joined the Roseland Ballroom in late 1918. From then on, he recorded with many bands. He had a rotating cast of noted musicians playing with him, He entered into a sponsorship with Bristol-Myers for their toothpaste, Ipana; hence his band was renamed The Ipana Troubadors. In 1928 and 1929 Lanin recorded with B. Crosby. In 1931 he lost his contract with Bristol-Meyers, his radio show and the name Ipana Troubadors. By the mid-30s, Sam cut a lot of transcription discs. While his fame had waned, he was still well off from the money he saved in the 1920s and retired from the music business by the end of the 1930s. He died in 1977, having never returned to music. This recording was made in 1929. Wonderful vocal by Smith Ballew.
