American Swing: Tea For Two (Youmans) - Red Nichols & His Five Pennies, 1930

[1920sbuff]

This version is amazing, sensuous and and so refinedly performed, great!

[barbcard]

The most sensuous version of this song I've ever heard.

Hi G. Back from the drizzles of London and Paris to the rain of New York and to the warmth of this jazzy yet relaxed beautiful version of this song. The video with its hot cups of tea and glowing love is wonderfully appropriate.

The song is great but the visual is a MASTERPIECE of LOVE!

Love the LOVERS!

What a SENSUOUS MOOD you create!

@genia106 Yes, it's my little tribute to LOVE LOVE LOVE - to the warmt6h of feeleings that we need so much, especially now, in these cold and rainy days in the very climax the East European Fall... :-(

Great record! Have never heard such a slow, leisurely version of this tune! Very nice!

[240252]

@abendstunde49 Really, it's one of the most ourtstanding versions of that tune I ever heard. People usually sing it in a "luscious and careless" manner just like Doris Day or that sort of singers did - and here we have almost a haunting blues! Nichols and his gang managed to extract from it the beauty of a ballade rather than a dance hit and cleansed it from the whole kittenish unconcern .

jakie to urocze zdjecia i muzyka !

cheers!

@LeRoi715 Dziękuję. Ten temat - i do tego w takim wspaniałym wykonaniu - sam nasuwa obrazy które najlepiej do niego pasują. Dobór ilustracji nie nastręczał kłopotu bo dokonywał się jak gdyby samoczynnie pod wpływem tej muzyki.

a cool jazz like sound in the age of hot stuff.... exquisitely executed by the best. i like both styles of jazz from that era, and this is a grand treatment of a classic tune. thanks for the images as always...a visual treat as well as aural.

@bill3murr It's a haunting music indeed. Thanks Bill :-)
