THERE'LL BE SOME CHANGES MADE~ Benny Goodman & His Orchestra 1939 .wmv

[horarwgt]

This record was cut June 10, 1939 but was not a hit -- then. However, when another version of this tune turned up on the soundtrack of the 1941 film "Playgirl," Columbia Records decided to cash in by re-releasing this recording. It worked -- because on March 22, 1941, this recording began it's 11 week chart run as Columbia 35210 -- during which it spent four weeks at #1! Ahead of it's time? I guess so!

@horarwgt : Thanks for the info.

This must be the unissued on 78 "Take B" as it's way different from my 78 Columbia issue! Nice job despite some flubs which much have kept it from being issued at the time.

I appreciate your using the information I gave you, 'MrRJDB'.

[MrRJDB1969]

@fromthesidelines : Yes, "fromthesidelines" , I'm using the date that you mentioned, thanks, and I do look forward to seeing some of "YOUR" uploads. I'm sure I'll have some information to share with you as well.

Official discographies list the August 1939 date, 'MrRJDB'. As I've mentioned, Louise Tobin left the Goodman band in September of '39: Helen Forrest was Benny's vocalist during most of '41. I appreciate your compliment...

[MrRJDB1969]

@fromthesidelines : "Helen Forrest was Benny's vocalist during most of '41", true. Then she went over to Harry James and then went solo and or paired up with Dick Haymes. I'm seeing the 1939 date now , different from another source of mine, but I'll go with the date change. Might as well use the "official discography" date and be accurate, right.

This was Benny's first recording upon his return to Columbia (after four years with Victor), on August 10, 1939. Fletcher Henderson wrote the arrangment. Louise left the band that September.

[MrRJDB1969]

@fromthesidelines : Was it 1939 ?? I've read that it was 1941. Either way, thanks for the info.

WOW! What a terrific record! The great Benny Goodman and the sublime Louise Tobin! Sensational arrangement! Listen to what Louise does with the word 'today' near the end. Beautiful pianissimo! Best ever of this great song! Thank you for posting!

Anyone got this by the early Vaughn Monroe band, around 1940 or '41? I know . . . but it's a very good arrangement and worth hearing again. You'll be surprised.

[MrRJDB1969]

@mcareyop : Hey, I believe you, I'm a BIG fan of Vaughn Monroe & His Orchestra, also, a fan of The Norton Sisters , The Moon Maids, & Ziggy Talent . As for Vaughn's version of THERE'LL BE SOME CHANGES MADE....I've never heard it, but now I'll have to go find me a copy on a 78rpm.

[MrRJDB1969]

@mcareyop : Just a late response , but I was out at a second hand store about 5 months ago and I did find a mint copy of Vaughn Monroe's THERE'LL BE SOME CHANGES MADE. Excellent record !

Good video and info.

Thanks for sharing.

@dkmckinney1 : You're welcome.

An article in the Dallas paper today indicates Louise is still going strong at 91. She was a great jazz singer.

[MrRJDB1969]

@royalconcertgebouw : Thanks for the comment.

@royalconcertgebouw She just came to our university today and talked with the jazz ensemble a bit. It's amazing to hear from someone who's been around for s long and was good friends with all of the greats! She lived with and spent everyday with the people who's recording we all admire so much. She's definitely still going strong! :)
