Old Polish tango: Mieczysław Fogg - Bajka (A Fairytale),1932

[smetk]

Thank you, you are the greatest! When I was 8 years old back in1962 my father would play this beautiful 78rpm record and we would all just sit around and listen to it in Chicago.

My father and mother came from Poland after WW2.

When I listen to it now it is like a portal to my disceased family and believe it gives

me a spiritual and physical boost in life to be sure.

A very powerful song and sweet.

Warszawa musiala byc piekna w tamtych czasach.

Nazywana ja Paryzem wschodu.

Thank you for this wonderful presentation of old Warsaw. I agree with Genia it is like a love song to the city.

I take it as Fogg's combination of a love song

with a sense of imminent farewell.

[dzheger]

A beautiful, romantic and gentle tango so sensitively sung and orchestrated. As enchanting as Warsaw that was.

Grezegorz, I love the photos of WARSZAWA as it used to be. She was Magnificent and using them in the video with this Wars orchestration and Fogg's plaintive vocal is BRILLIANT, it is as if Fogg is singing a Love Song to this "Fairytale" City. Thanks.
