NBC with his own hot-jazz radio program, Dr. Gino, airing on Saturday afternoons. Recordings and films Beginning in November 1940, RCA Victor recorded albums featuring The Chamber Music Society of Lower Basin Street. The liner notes were written by Welbourne (Web) Kelley, who wrote the radio series. Each disc in the album would begin with "Dr. Gino" Hamilton introducing the selection, played by one of the two Lower Basin Street bands. The other side of the disc featured the other band. RCA re-released these records as late as the 1960s, emphasizing vocalists Dinah Shore or Lena Horne and deleting the commentaries. The only surviving visual records of The Chamber Music Society of Lower Basin Street are four three-minute films produced for the Soundies film jukeboxes in 1941. All feature the Henry Levine "Dixieland Jazz Band," with vocals by Linda Keene in three of them.
