Elizalde's band got strict rules from the Savoy management about the style of its music, and the BBC, British Broadcasting Company, ended his broadcasts. Rollini went to the USA to hire more reed players for Elizalde and his brother Art was one of them. Special performances enhanced Elizalde's popularity, but by mid-1927 the Savoy ended his contract and making records had virtually stopped. No reason for Elizalde to stop paying his men. They worked on the soundtrack of an early sound movie with PolaNegri, which did not bring them much publicity. A tour through the country to Scotland was a half success only and the band was falling apart. The Rollinis returned to New York.
