What a lovely old tune, nicely done. and with the scratches, just like being in the parlour 1929, gathered around the Victrola on a Saturday eve, playing Canasta with Aunt Peg and Uncle Harry. Thanks.
And will we ever have music with such wonderful lyrics again? Or music that two people could actually dance to while holding on to eachother? After all, wasn't that what it was all about? To hold someone you cared for, while music like this played and you could forget the worlds troubles.
Very pretty song that I haven't heard in years. I love this orchestra -- -GREAT SOUND! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR INCLUDING THIS ONE ON YOU TUBE!! Tommy
This is a wonderful arrangement. It's not common to hear the verse sung...I also like Cliff Edwards' version, it's on YouTube as well. Thanks for sharing this lovely recording.
Yes it is Eddie Lang on guitar. I believe in this recording session OKEH used musicians from the Dorsey Brothers. The personnel isn't listed for this side in Brain Rust Jazz Discography.
Great song from "Our Modern Maidens" that starred Joan Crawford. The song also made the movie, and is still considred to be a well loved standard in the American pop song Repertoire.
I've always loved this tune!

Hooray! It has the intro. I hate to hear old standards when they go right to the refrain & leave off the intro. Thumbs up.
