Bob, I commented on this record when you uploaded it two years ago. I just listened to it again, and it's quite a stunning performance. I note that the Shannon Quartet recorded this early electric record in the same manner as an acoustic and not in the "new" quartet sound of the second half of the '20s.

@aznbmxer182 I posted a cleaner copy a few days ago on my channel. You might want to listen to it at 480p

Anybody know where I can get this song, complete with full refrain, dots, or better still the chords - please?

This version was beautiful, BTW! - I love hearing these, as they were originally penned, and performed by the best available in the era....

@Tobytrim Try this site webapp1.dlib.indiana.edu/inhar­mony/welcome.do

BTW, I will repost this with better sound quality today.

@Boredofcheesynoodles Que triste tu cuento! Ojala que el Nick pueda descansar en paz, y que su familia quedara tambien con recuerdos de una buena vida, y la gracia del dios.

Quite remarkable recording isn't it? No Fake Drum Machine/Pitch Adjuster/Tuneless rubbish, just some guys singing a beautiful melody the way music was intended. Thank you for posting.

this was hip young music in the 1920s all the young artists and bohemians sang it in cafes. its a long way form the hipster music of today's youth.
