Boswell Sisters- Shuffle Off To Buffalo BRUNSWICK 6545 [1933] 78 RPM

[frizzlefrap]

doesn't even sound like the song i'm familiar with ....... too jazzy for me ..... maybe some other song would sound ok with this type of singing .... but waaayyyyyy tooooo fast for me.

@frizzlefrap Did you listen to the whole song (specifically, 0:55 - 2:10)? This IS jazz, by the way...

@frizzlefrap - that was the whole purpose of the Boswell Sisters. They weren't tradition pop crooners. They specialized in tight close harmony with lots of rhythms and tempos. It wasn't to show off the song but to show off their ability to sing so tightly and fast. If you think that's fast, listen to their version of "Everybody Loves My Baby."

Can't match the sound of these 78s on a CD. Thanks for this one.
