  • what a sweet song. British bands were good thanks so much.  Greetings from Nova Scotia, Canada

  • I wasn't familiar with this piece but Ambrose is one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing.

    Speaking of the wireless ... is there anywhere we can tune in to this kind of music today?

  • Lovely recording, I did have a tape copy from dear old Alan Dell's prog, long since chewed! I had never heard your Geo Barclay version. It is quite different and it would be difficult to choose. No choice with the band though.

    Thanks

  • Beautiful!! The Beat Sort of Reminds Me Of "Until The Real Thing Comes Along" By Leo Reisman`s Brunswick Orchestra,

  • One of the best - if not THE Best - of the Ambrose records and the singer was the ever reliable Sam Browne - not george Barclay.

  • This recording was used throughout the BBCTV documentary "The Lost World of Freize Green", presented by Dan Cruikshank. Told the story of Claude Freize Green and his tour of the mainland U.K. in the 1920s (in a vintage Vauxhall) with his pioneering colour film making process - fascinating, and very appropriate music!

  • Great song! Johnny Mathis has a really good rendition.Thanks for posting it.

  • yes--that's a keeper!

  • This is a lovely piece. I'm willing to admit complete ignorance. Tune in my wireless for what? Thank so much for the recording!

  • It's only my total enthusiasm carrying me away!!!.10.30 until midnight on Saturday evening was when Ambrose & His Orchestra would broadcast from 1928 until the later 1930's on the BBC.

  • I was hoping against hope that you would tell me there was a current BBC link to this wonderful music. Last December on a Saturday night, WMNR out of Monroe, Connecticut dedicated 1 1/2 hours exclusively to the music of Lew Stone. I was in Heaven, but that's the closest my "wireless" has ever gotten to British dance band music. *sigh!* (Of course, once in a while one can hear Ray Noble's American Orchestra). Thanks again for all the beautiful music!

  • Great to hear that someone in the USA enjoys the music of the great 1930s British dance bands. Of course quite a few were led by Americans.

  • One of my all-time favorite Ambrose recordings, thanks so much for posting this! Interesting Decca sleeve, too... you're quite lucky to own a copy of this excellent record!

  • One my very FAVOURITE tunes in a so to say ideal performance, I'm speechless.

  • I am often in complete agreement with mic33george i find,and i am 100% for this!!!!!

  • I have just said on another upload,that it was "perfection",and the same goes for this"PERFECTION".Dont the lyrics convey the loveliest sentiments,all to that heavenly tune!
