John T. Murray

Type:
Murray is tall and angular. In a lavender English walking suit with skin tight trousers his appearance was enough to carry him through his first number.
Murray might be English. He sings English songs. However, he could be American affecting an English style.
He begins the act singing "All Get Out of the Park." He kept lightning pace back and forth across the stage.
He will have to find different material to be considered for big time honors. His numbers suffer as they are all worked the same. He seems to be more of a production comedian than a single entertainer. He has a good appearance, even in grotesque attire, a good voice, personality, and can dance. "A musical comedy looking for a Vernon Castle style of comedian could do no better than John T. Murray, if that is his name. (Those card boards are uncertain at times.)"
