This outstanding British band unjustly is little remembered today, although Winter's orchestra was the first dance band on radio, broadcasting from London's Marconi House attic on March 26, 1923. In 1924, he also appeared as the first band performing on a commerical radio station ever as well, in fact Radio Paris. Winter also claimed that he was the very first leader to use a theme song. This most distinct recording was made in 1930, with an equally remarkable vocal by Al Bowlly.
