Jack Hylton's Orchestra - You're The Cream In My Coffee (1928).

There are some great vintage advertisements and illustrations in this video.


Same song, same year, this time performed by the Colonial Club Orchestra. Again some great illustrations and advertisements.


I was listening to this song earlier .BTW you are centering your videos that is why that are set that way...;)

Ted Weems - You're The Cream In My Coffee

from last night; listening to the Mr. singing along in full voice to this playing on the CD player, while he's looking at me when singing certain lyric lines as he's bringing our dinners (that he had just finished making, his homemade healthier version of Cioppino) to the living room (where we sat to watch a "Thin Man" DVD). Perfect. Wow, life don't get much better than that, Baby! btw, this song is great for dancing WestCoast Swing to:)

I'm listening to the great and under appreciated Georgie Fame.

Just checked the first post to make sure this doesn't have to be Golden Age stuff...not a big fan of big band, etc., although I do like the blues from the period. (later edit: and the Carter Family...I'll always listen to them!)

But I just found a DVD of Steve Earle's Live at Montreux 2005 at a thrift store and I've been watching that all evening. The man is good...very good.

Hmmmm... not a lot of golden age music listening here - none, in fact - but I did enjoy three Vic 'n' Sade episodes

A Porch Collapses (39-06-13)
Two Tons of Coal (39-07-05)
Preselected School Clothes (39-08-30)

I'm always on the lookout for interesting and/or unusual recordings and I just came across this one. This very Western-sounding Japanese recording is unusual in my book because its a prewar recording. Most Japanese jazz and dance band recordings tend to be postwar while the majority of the prewar pop tunes I've heard are usually the more traditional-sounding fare. In addition, the lyrics are in English.
