TEDDY KLINE was an American clarinet player and a bandleader, well known in Berlin. In 1929 his orchestra recorded "I'm Doing What I'm Doing For Love" with a refrain sung by „Two Jazzers". The recording is a good example of a Hot-dance Jazz, as it was played in the Weimar Republic. The members of the band at the time included the finest musicians, including Billy Barton (tenor & bass sax) , Mike Danzi (banjo) or George Haentzschel (piano). Kline's band was quite popular in Berlin, he was as well received as the other orchestras of that time, such as Marek Weber, Paul Godwin, Julian Fuhs or Stefan Weintraub's Syncopators.

THE TWO JAZZERS were Lászlo Mocsányi and Tibor Lakos, both of whom were born in 1903 in Budapest, Hungary, and attended the same school in their youth.  At the age of 25, they made their first broadcast in Budapest.  In Autumn of 1928, they made their first records with Columbia. They became quite well known in Vienna, Austria, and in February 1929 were engaged at the famous "Charell-Revue" in Berlin, followed by an engagement at the legendary "Kabarett der Komiker", also in Berlin.  In Germany, the fellows recorded for Ultraphon, began appearing on the radio on March 19th, 1929, and were popular enough to attract the attention of Terra-Film. At the end of 1930, they went back to Budapest.  Prior to this time, their performances had been accompanied by well known orchestras, but they now developed their own style, performing mostly in Hungarian.  In 1932, they organized the „Harlem Melody Band" and began recording on their own label "Radius and Weekend."
The sources do not mention about their activity after 1934. Tibor Lakos died in Budapest, in 1945, barely in his forties.  Lászlo Mocsányi passed away in 1982, at the age of 79.
