Seek Duo-Art "There's a Small Hotel" Adam Carroll
By Jim Ridgewell

Hi, there is a scanned copy of an Adam Carroll Duo-art roll which
is being considered for a run of new rolls here in the UK, however
there is a passage that may or may not be correct on the scan.
It is a 1930's dance tune, 'There's a Small Hotel', in a beautiful
arrangement by Adam Carroll, however the only YouTube recordings are
from Ampico versions, and at least one is from a MIDI file, possibly
with the fault (sorry if this is the wrong phrase).

Has anyone out there a copy for their Duo-Art player, and could they
possibly upload a recording of it, any sound quality, so we can compare
with the version on file?  The passage will be about 120 to 150 seconds
into the recording, and is a set of very fast staccato chords, repeated
a few seconds later.  Any help would be greatly appreciated on this!

All the best,
Jim Ridgewell (UK)
