I love British dance bands of this period. They had something quite special in their musicianship and arrangements. Thanks.

Really nice arrangement of the tune.Val Rosing is usually associated with the other BBC band (Henry Hall)particularly Teddy's Bears Picnic and Sun has got it's hat on.Jack Payne finished his life in very poor health and running an off license in Kent.He should have stayed another couple of years at the BBC as he was still on the up in 1932

One of my favorits, nice tune to begin my new life.

The Ambrose version on HMV from 1930 was among the 78's I brought back from London last summer - this is equally good! I first came across the Ambrose one on the same day that I visited the May Fair Hotel, something of a coincidence. The section from 2:25 to the end on the Payne is fantastic!

According to "Dance Bands on Record" Val Rosing recorded no fewer than 35 issued titles with Jack Payne and this is one of their best .

This delightful tune is played with style and panache - a joy to hear.

Thirty five!, I wonder how many Elsie Carlisle made with Jack?, can't be many?.

[jackpaynefan]

Elsie Carlisle recorded just one song with Jack "Ten cents a dance" on 31st March 1931.

[85scampi]

You see, I had an idea it wasn't many!. Never heard that particular delight though.
