What are you listening to?

[LizzieMaine]

78s to come out from under the fog by --

Starting off in 1933 as Chick Bullock and His Levee Loungers give out with the whole lazy-southern bit with "Delta Bound." The Loungers on this side are actually the Dorsey Brothers Orchestra incognito, and sound it.

Next, following a commercial for St. Joseph's Aspirin -- a product with which I have had much contact lately -- it's Larry Clinton and his Orchestra in 1938, with a typically Bea Wain-ish Bea Wain vocal on "You're An Education."

Say It Isn't So - Jack Berger & Hotel Astor Orch., 1932. Irving Berlin hit sung by the almost popular Charlie Palloy, who managed to imitate Bing without sounding at all like him.

 

[Harp]

Sarah Vaughan, Black Coffee

WBBM Radio 780*AM, Bears Talk
(Lions, no Tigers, and 'da Chicago Bears are gonna stomp 'da Lions.)

Beethoven, Variations on a waltz by Anton Diabelli
Daniel Barenboim, Steinway Piano

Paganini:24 Caprices for Solo Violin

Bears squeaked by and most definitely did not stomp.
Though a win is a win. :eusa_clap

"The Third Man Theme" - Anton Karas (1949)

Been watching "The Third Man" recently, and now I got the theme music stuck in my head. Such a great movie!

I'm still musing over the line in her song 'Roller Coaster Blues'.

"But you're slick and evil, just like your patent leather shoes."

Steady on!

 

[BinkieBaumont]

Oh yes!, of course, he must be using his shoes as a mirror to look up her frock? like a periscope

 

[Fletch]

Kids today would say, "What the frock?" lol

I don't like to do encores, but this one's earwormed me this morning, and it's had its link munged.

Henry Thies has a few more cuts on da Toob if you like this. His was a sad story - in the mid 30s he lost the use of his right (baton and violin bow) arm, became despondent and killed himself.

 

[LizzieMaine]

78s to make two corned beef sandwiches for a long day at work by --

Starting off in 1935 with Frances Day -- a working-class New Jersey gal who went to England, took elocution lessons, and learned to trill like Jessie Matthews -- with a delightful "Help Yourself To Happiness."

Next, ahead to 1937 with Ozzie Nelson and his Orchestra and Ozzie on the vocal for "Long As You've Got Your Health." A ducky pop tune of the moment, even though every Nelson record from this era uses exactly the same arrangement.
