Lovely jazzy foxtrot, and charming period photos that convey the essence of London.
And as a Jewish mother would say: Schreib, schreib, mein Kind! and good luck!

Love The Henry Hall Orchestra. Pictures are excellent. Amazingly one of the boys looking at the two 'toffs' from Eton (1.44)is the father of one of my childhood friends.

The late Humphrey Lyttleton, greatest of all British jazz trumpeters, was an Eton schoolboy before WW2 and his father was a master there.

Charming version of a song my mother used to sing when I was a wee one. Loved the pics, esp. the Elephant ande Castle. Just returned from beautiful, warm Iceland. The blue lagoons are worth the whole trip.

Swingin' tune from a great band. Probably one of the best. Hall was a perfectionist and it showed. Have you ever heard of The Six Swingers? I think there were actually 7. Anyway, they played in different bands of the period but recorded as a group. Best version of Your Mother's Son in Law ever recorded. Even better then Benny Goodman version, and I'm a BG FANatic!
Enjoy the pix of London. I'm not certain it's civilized anymore. Alas.

Great rendition!
I'm almost certain that the vocalist is George Elrick - a wee Scotsman from Aberdeen.
Thanks for sharing.

Corrie, you're right, you can hear George Elrick's Scots accent clearly - you guys north of the border never lose it!

SMASHING! Love the song! Love your photos of London! Love those Darling Eton boys who later became Oxford and Cambridge MEN!

Oh dear! One of the famous record of Henry Hall. The very first time I ever heard it. And it sounds to a dream to me. Thank you very much indeed.
