This is the pieces that I managed to play from this old reel.

The Wayne King Orchestra was a prominent musical ensemble led by Wayne King, an American musician and bandleader. Known as the "Waltz King," Wayne King gained fame in the 1920s and 1930s for his elegant and romantic orchestral arrangements, particularly his mastery of waltz music.

Born on February 16, 1901, in Savanna, Illinois, Wayne King began his musical career as a saxophonist. He formed his first orchestra, the Wayne King Orchestra, in 1927. The group quickly gained popularity, securing a residency at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, where they performed for several years.

One of the defining features of the Wayne King Orchestra was their signature sound, characterized by lush string arrangements, gentle melodies, and a dreamy atmosphere. Wayne King's ability to evoke sentiment and create a romantic ambiance made his orchestra immensely popular, attracting a devoted following.

I think the side 2 is bleeding through and playing backwards.

Sounds like Ruskie football.
