  • Thank you! that was an interesting journey back to the 20s when Bing (The greatest crooner of them all ) was just about to explode into the American music scene-Thank you once again- I wonder what happened to his partner Al Rinker ?

  • Magnificant relict of a forgotten epoch!

  • This sounds like a soundtrack from one of those old black & white cartoons from the 1920s. Kinda cool though! Joe

  • thank you for the intro, but i noticed you recited from wikipedia..or maybe wikipedia recited from you?

  • @teddythebear1234, I try to be as accurate as possible in my historical intros of these records. I always check through quite a few sources before going forward with my intros and no, I do not have all of this information floating around up in my head, so I am not quite sure why anyone would want to take the time to go into the Wikipedia, which very often gleans info from other sources, and compare it against what I am saying, in order to make a statement Like that. Thanks for watching.

  • Thank you for bringing this to yt,and thanks for all this wonderful information to go along with it. :)

    Happy Holidays!

  • Very cool. Thanks for sharing this. Do you know where I could get the lyrics? The chorus is obviously easy, but it's a little tough to hear the verse. Please let me know!

  • @ThePattycake1313 I always enjoy hearing such eloquent and constructive viewpoints of my videos. It so warms my heart to see that viewers can take such diverse directions in their opinions of my efforts to not only bring the original song, the original record and the original equipment to this site, but also the history surrounding the artist, the song, and the performance as well. Thanks so much for watching.

  • @victrolaman you are welecome. anytime you need any constructive critisism let me know. it is good of you to accept it in such a humble mannor. for you see, you could in the future write out what you want to say. That way if ppl, wish to partake in your bordom they have a choice. thanks again so much for the understanding and have a good day.

  • @ThePattycake1313 you do realize of course that you have complete control over the bordom situation as the viewer. If you are bored and not at all interested in the history, you can fast forward the video past all of the boring stuff that is of no interest to you to the point where the stylus is placed on the record. If you need instructions on how to accomplish this I would very happy to help out. Again, so happy you are watching my videos and offering suggestions.

  • Living in the sunlight, loving in the moonlight? The music sounds very similar.

  • Awesome song. Anyone got the lyrics for this?

  • The record was cut in a warehouse in Los Angeles,produced in a faster than original played form.Some issues have Charleston Serenaders with vocal refrain.

    Two records at this session,one unissued leaving this as the first commertial recording.The other recording "Don't Somebody Need Somebody" never found.

  • beautiful orthophonic ! great sound! thanks

  • I picked up that record bout 18 years ago for 50 cents at an indoor flea market - still have it! I play it once every three or four years - lol! I'm very protective of it. Thanks for the insight on the recording.

  • I should have mentioned, I did exactly that, I tweeked down the RPMs prior to putting this record on. It was guess work of course, I have no idea what reduced RPMS Columbia recorded this record.

    Victrolaman

  • Wouldn't it sound better if it was played at less than 78 rpm so as to replicate the speed at which it was recorded?

  • I love subscribing to your site. It's great you're keeping this stuff alive. And I like your commentary too.

  • Hey just want to say thanks for uploading all these really old songs. I've very recently discovered how much i like this kind of music and was really glad you had a whole bunch of videos like this.

  • This was uploaded on 4/13

    Jack Noir/Spades Slick has a Crosbytop

    what

    Oh, and views are 143, which has the same numbers as 413

  • Oh, man... victrolaman, you know how Midnight Crew has been getting so much attention? Well, in that comic storyline, the numbers 4 and then 13 hold a lot of significance.

    Crosby has also made an appearance. So the fact that you uploaded a Crosby song, on 4/13, after getting so many Homestuck fans... well, you're just a magnet for interesting coincidences it seems.

  • nice beaver, I mean viva...

  • Very nice Bruce, i have never heard his first recording, thanks

  • Your record, and player sounds very nice! That record looks/sounds like it was preserved well.

  • Wonderful music too bad we have to back some 80 years to get it...........

  • Exciting dance music recording, and very interesting information about it in the beginning of the video - thanks for sharing!
