Never mind - it's Biese's Novelty Orchestra on Aeolian Vocalion 14002 from November, 1919. I just found a copy of it in my collection! I should have known. :) Thanks, anyway!
Larry Semon wasn't the funniest silent film comic but knew what audiences wanted, unfortunately like Harry Langdon they didn't work well with others who knew how to write comedy. They weren't natural like Chaplin or Keaton.
