  • This is the second version of this song.The one I have on tape from WJDA 1300 in Quincy,Mass.

  • This is the FIRST version, recorded in 1933. The other version, made in 1938 you can hear in related videos (TheLimePopcicle). It's clearly different from this.

  • @jd03150 I second that. Whenever asked what my favourite recording is, I answer without hesitation, "Ted Weems's original 1933 version of 'Heartaches.'"

  • I have a version to, but i don't see it here on you tube. Ther one I have is a later sterero version.

  • yes --- this is just AWESOME!!! I love this version ---- and I like the RCA version, too....

  • Gee, it took Ted three or four recordings and 14 years to get a #1 hit with this song. At least it finally worked for him!! Always been a favorite of mine. :)

  • Wonderful! I could dance around all day to this!

  • This is SO GOOD! Great version - I've heard the later versions by Ted Weems many times - this is GREAT! Thank you for posting!

  • @jd03150 Strange, then, that Weems - or anybody else - never did another number in the same style. It wasn't typical of his band in any way but the whistling solo. ?????

  • Elmo Tanner (I believe) doing the whistling! Great song!

  • Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the RCA version --- good tempo ---- and just better produced than the Deca version.....

  • Ah --- the nicer version. The Decca version of this song is just a bit slow.
