  • Um belo som amanteigado que o velho Harry tira no pistão...Fantástico.

  • Harry James was quite generous featuring his sidemen, such as Willie Smith, the soloist on this recording.

  • de cuantas pulgadas es el disco????

  • @69luismendoza

    de 10 pulgadas

  • GREAT song and the original, best performance. Thank you mucho!

  • Because my parents bought a Al Hirt album with this song is the remember the first.Then in 1993 picked up a Harry James best of tape and discovered this version which admittedly I did not like at first but do today.Was listening to this song on my way to Wal Mart this morning.

  • @generationll I still have my mother's Al Hirt Album like yours ! ! ! I've always admired talented musicians & my channel's 550 playlists include lists for 350 individual artists like Hirt & James. Horst Fischer is ann incredible German trumpet player, too. I've also created 111 lists for every year since 1900, so as I have time to research or uploaders post release years, I've got about 6000 songs on those lists so far, always adding & editing unplayables. Come pay a visit! chuck

  • That's a great song and great sounding record. I really like that Philips changer. My grandfather up in Canada used to work with Philips back then. He said that those old Philips changers were the best you could get. I have a Packard Bell changer from 1968, but I'd love a changer like that one. Great video!

  • HOW do you get such beautiful reproduction from 78s like this???? I am going wild! These sound like MODERN recordings!!!

  • So smooth , for some cheek to cheek dancing. Danced to Harry's Music several times

  • great song--brings that TIME back (and I wasn't even alive then!)

  • My paretns had a Al Hirt album and that is where I discovered this song.

  • Harry James was my favotie big band leader. I learned to dance to 2 o'clock jump and found all of his Columbia sides exceptional. I've since embraced Woody Herman, Gene Krupa, Shaw, Goodman, Miller, Kaye, Ambrose, the Dorseys...but James was the first to make me understand how cool swing and big band really was.

  • Danced to this in college, but haven't heard it since. Thanks, Yopa, for the memory of that long ago romantic night.

  • Transcendent!

  • Great recording!

  • Al Hirt also did a version this to.

  • Willie Smith is terrific.

  • I listened to this recording often as a child and the record was not in my father's vast collection after he had died. Thanks for posting this so much. My father served in the US Army Air Force Band during WWII as a trumpet player and Harry James was a great influence on him. The arrangement is fantastic and the musicianship is tremendous!!!

  • Hi. That´s nice. You´ve made live this insignificant video.

    Thank you.

  • Thanks so much-again! This "insignificant" video represents culture and freedom in art in which the talents of a few individuals bring can bring joy to countless others!

  • This is a lovely video!

  • Definitely one of the better James recordings - and a demonstration of just how generous James was in featuring his sidemen (in this case, Willy Smith on alto sax)

  • Al Hirt also did a version of this song in the 1960s.If you have a Harry James greatest hit tape like I have have this song follows Its Been A Long Time.

  • Esto si es musica de apresiacion musica de vinil

    le felicito por tener su maquina en maxnificas condiciones

  • Exquisita musica de vinil de 33 revoluciones, mientras quedo demostrado que el "cd" absorve solo un 85% en una maquina hecha al proposito,

    y todo fue hecho por puro negocio

    Esto si es musica, no esos ruidos aterradores

    de ahora

    le felicito

  • Impresionante calidad de sonido !

    De qué año data la grabación ?

  • Gracias. El año exacto no te lo puedo decir, no viene en el disco pero por el tipo de prensado y la orquesta de q se trata, logicamente será de los 40.

    Tambien es importante como sabrás tener la aguja en buenas condiciones.

    Un saludo, rey.
