Comments about this label:

Jeff Smedbron on Dec 18, 2011.
Paul Wynn is pseudonym for Phil Winston on this label series of Benny Bell tunes.
Edwin C. Harvey, Jr. on Mar 2, 2012.
Paul Winston is incorrect. <br>The correct title for this song is actually "The Boat Song" (Take A Ship For Yourself). <br>This song was played on The Dr. Demento Show #12-07 - February 18th, 2012 with the special Topic: party records. The copy that Dr. Demento played is credited as Benny Bell w/ Frankie "Miggs" Rand and & His Band. <br>But I think on this copy posted here Paul Wynn is the vocal with Benny Bell's Orchestra. <br>On the record the word "SHIP" is often misheard as "SHIT"! So it sounds like Benny is saying "Take A SHIT for Yourself!" Words on phonographs back in the 1930's and 40's were often hard to understand!
