Without You Sweetheart. Layton and Johnstone. 1928.

"Without You Sweetheart". (DeSylva, Brown & Henderson).
Layton & Johnstone.

In their own easy, carefree, but extremely polished and immaculate way Layton & Johnstone sang their way through hundreds of records for Columbia in that golden age of the late 1920's and early 1930's. These records were huge sellers, millions were bought and cherished and even today this is evident. This lovely gem was found only last week for 25p.

When you want to hear the full lyrics to a song or if your feet just wont take anymore Fox - Troting after an evening of Dance Bands then these two gentlemen of song are just the answer.

I thought so too. These two are such underated and undervalued singers I always feel yet they were million selling recording artistes in their day. Cheers!.

first class

They were First Class I agree. An old friend of mine used to regard them very highly indeed.

I know i go on that a dance band version of these tunes is preferable-but really they are very pleasant to listen to,and this is such a nice tune.I wish i had the ones my nan spoke about.

Layton and Johnstone are one of my favourite duos. Thank you for posting this one.

You got a bargain! My copy orginally belonged to my Grandparent's, it's an old favourite of mine.

Your narrative is so apt.
