  • Thanks. Those where the days when you needed actual tallent to make it. Too bad those days, like these fine ladies, are gone forever.

  • @TheCaptainLulz No doubt about it! There are still talents today's...unfortunally they're not attractive for the "great" audience! Grtz, Aad

  • @aadjuijn This is very true !

  • They were GREAT! Loved this...

  • @ManagerGuy1 Thanks...good taste! Grtz, Aad

  • Julie London has a great sultry, torch version of this....Love the Bozes....

  • @zamusicza The Bozzies are unique...the Julie London version is more jazzy, but great too! Grtz, Aad

  • The Gene Krupa Orchestra does a great version of this, too.

  • @kennywowie It is!...I have that version also: Gene Krupa & His Orch. (vocal: Irene Daye) - 1941. Grtz, Aad

  • With music like this, rather it be Jazz or swing. Groups like the Boswell sisters sure knew how to sing!

  • @RUSS30776 A typical Boswell item is their brilliant senses to change tempo during much of their songs! Strange enough is that speciality a point of critic from some of their criticasters that era. Grtz, Aad

  • @tenorbanjo4 Coming from New Orleans the Bozzies were of course very well known with the blues. And Conny with her great arranging skill was able to incorporate this slow 12 bar scheme into the up-tempo number, making it a unique Boswell Sisters number. They were and still are the very best. I've heard many trying to do what they did, but nobody even comes close. Aad, you're doing a great job saving these records for posterity.

  • @syncopeter Thanks Peter! The parents of the Boswells were middle class people and they had at that time black housekeepers. The three sisters sang often with these people and learned a lot from them! It was later critics thet also say that the sisters had a black soul. I guess they were very brilliant and indeed very lonely at the top of their sort of music...unsurpassed! Groeten, Aad

  • Very nice and curious arrangement, from 1:03 it sounds like "St. Louis Blues" !

    Thank you for posting.

  • @tenorbanjo4 Thank you...indeed your right! Grtz, Aad

  • @tenorbanjo4 Thank you too! ...I agree there is indeed a "St Louis Blues" touch in it. Grtz, Aad

  • Many thanks, yet again...your transfers are so very clean they put the CDs to shame!

  • Nothing like the Boswell Sisters, before or since. They were brilliant.

  • Bravo for - at last - sound not so

    heavily mastered.

    Much more natural...-

  • BRAVA BRAVA BRAVA!

    Change in the weathuh, change in the sea

    From now own there'll be uh change in me!!

    ("own" used for pronunciation hee hee)

  • Thanks for the post -- always glad to hear another by the Boswell Sisters!
