What a wonderful, heavenly surprise, specially those green eyes! Thank you! Thank you! bless you!

Bob, I love these Latin tunes. I didn't realize "Green Eyes" came this early. I only knew the Jimmy Dorsey version, but this is much more authentic of the style.

@bsgs98 I bought this record about a year ago. I didn't know the song was done by this band till Prozoot asked if I had it. I found a copy shortly after that.

Thank you Pax. You've made my day quite often these past few weeks with your great medley postings. Often well known numbers, but versions I never came across. I've put you high on my list of favourite posters.

@syncopeter Thank you, I appreciate that. I see that you are a frequent poster on many channels. I view my channel as a sort of radio station. I know that some songs are here already but I also know that some people may not come across them. I also keep trying to improve the quality of the transfers. Thus why I have reposted some of my earlier posts. Thanks again for watching.

Great! All I have is La Paloma done by Cugie and Dinah Shore, 1938. Nice to hear other versions.

Pax, I am a music lover and try to share it with as many people as possible. In fact almost all my friends I met through music. Your post are always interesting because they show things I either didn't know about or I had forgotten. I'm in the process of restoring a lot of 20s and 30s piano music (around 1500 titles), but have not yet reached a quality level that I'm comfortable with. But I definitely will be posting the highlights of them.
