Recorded in New York City on September 8th 1927 featuring Annette Hanshaw vocals, Joe Venuti violin & cymbal, Eddie Lang guitar, and possibly Arthur Schutt or Frank Signorelli piano.

*"It Was Only A Sunshower" was composed by Ted Snyder, with words by Irving Kahal and Francis Wheeler.

On this riviting record made early on in her career Annette Hanshaw is joined by the ground breaking string duo comprised of Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang. Here the rising singing star is captured at her absolute best performing a title which seems to have been specifically written for her voice. Preserving far more than mere talent, this spectacular recording manages to capture Annette's sweet one of a kind personality and is just gushing with girlish charm.

With Annette Hanshaw's career beginning to prosper during the Fall of 1927, her accompanists "Venuti & Lang" were also rapidly climbing the ranks of the New York jazz scene at the time.
