Great recording but a wrong pitch. It's playing at a faster speed so it's half tone higher than it's recorded. I am sure it won't make much of a difference for most people, but musicians tend to notice things like that.
It's funny but when you see those support columns fan out into the ceiling, they seem like fireworks climbing into the sky. At least when Louie's playing.
The sax section is incredible and you can definitely hear Dorsey is leading it and the others are following the master! I believe the drummer is McKinley; he was with the band at the time and it sure sounds like his sound of that era...he is definitely propelling the whole band!
This version of the song was recorded on 8/7/36. However it was not released until early 1940. It so happened that Louis also recorded it with his own orchestra on 4/29/36. This one was released in 1936. Louis playes the solo's almost exactly the same but the bands are very different.
Doskonałe zestawienie muzyki z obrazem. I do tego te dwa estetycznie wspaniałe okresy. Fajny byłby również film pokazujący katedry oraz monumenty Art Deco.
I'm a Catholic priest and I love your juxtaposition of gothic and jazz! The cathedrals are full of innovation and caprice (gargoyles!) within a given order and structure. And isn't that what jazz is all about? Thanks for the great music and pictures.
@NUKETHESCENEKIDZ it wasnt all that fun in that time period, people who listened to the new form "jazz" where considered lazy and strange. then the stock market crashed, but this song definatly keeps spirits high.
@NUKETHESCENEKIDZ Though I do like this music a lot, this music wasn't considered 'well mannered' in its day. This music led the way to where we are today.
Wow, what an original idea! I'm trying to imagine Dorsey & Armstrong performing in, say, Le Cathedral de Chartres. What would the priest say?! Even the gargoyles are dancing. . .
Unfortunaley there has been done dosens of crappy imitations of Louis Armstrong. I'm embarrassed... :-(

Louis' vocal and solo are great, but how about the sax section between the two? And is Ray McKinley the drummer?

The version with Louis' own band had the superior solo. "Swing That Music" is the ring tone on my phone.

@mcareyop Gargoyles are indeed fanciful, but very practical. They are drain spouts for runoff rain water. Related to gargle in English.

A celestial experience, one may say. "... that puts me in a trance..." Armstrong sings.

Thank you for your wonderful match between sound and picture. Armstrong is the first genius in Jazz, in my opinion. Hein
