[kurtarmbruster]

[petermilley]

Brilliant !!!!

[ChaseOnMars]

Lorenz Hart was a genius. As was Richard Rodgers. Together!!

hahaha mentally almost complete!

This is one of the songs that defines the Jazz Age of the 1920's. Over on GoodOldDays channel is a priceless film clip of this tune being performed in a film from 1929! It is wonderful to see this great song on a film from the time the tune was written instead of some version filmed decades later and void of any real 1920's feeling. This song is unfortunatley portrayed as a hackneyed funny joke poking fun at the 1920's in later versions I have seen. Thanks for this version by The Savoy Orpheans.

Wonderful tune and perfect rendition by The Savoy Orpheans - just love that Tuba or whatever it is. Just acquired this version as a bonus on a CD of The Boyfriend by Sandy Wilson. Great to find others love this music - Rogers was one of the best composers!

How marvelous! I love this song, I absolutely must get some more from the Savoy Orphans!

I was just wondering about the clips, were are they from?

[mojoman4147]

I have been looking for MP3's of the Savoy Orpheans songs for some time now without success. Aside from youtube I have no way of listening to their great sound. Can anyone recommend a site where I can download them from? Much appreciated :) (And keep up the good work Aaron)

A little bit too fast to sing along with but this would have been great to dance to!

[Chicagojerry44]

Beautifully Done.....

[bearcub410]

the best thanks again

[GrenvilleT]

Bravo!

It gave Sandy Wilson - Old Harrovian - the idea for 'The Boy Friend'.

It reminds me of the wonderful Lorenz Hart song composed by Richard Rodgers before he went dull & schmaltzy with Hammerstein.

What a wonderful 20s number.
