    The world IS a strange place;) What I find even more strange is how there can be someone who doesn't like this.

  • 5s it strange that that's a guy singing "I'd rather be the girl in your arms.."?

  • ¡Deliciosa!

    

  • Bill Challis did the arrangement on this recording. Unfortunately the Goldkette band didn't record some some of Challis hotter arrangements like Blue Room and Milenberg Joys. On my page I have a recording from a radio show from 1938 called Design for Dancing. This show featured a top name arranger. I have a recording of the show when Bill Challis was the guest arranger, The band plays Challis arrangement of Milenberg Joys. I wonder if this is the same arrangement he did for the Goldkette band?

  • Who is the girl in the 1st photo? She's gorgeous

  • Extraordinary arrangement and performance! The vocalist sounds not at all like Bessinger though, who is a bass/baritone. Not exactly what I hear on this one.

  • have you got the telephone number for the girl in the Folies Bergere poster?!!! ;)

  • A lot of the period bands could play well but not always good material and interesting arrangement. This one has a high success rate.

  • Those cloned ladies at 0'56 are a riot. I like how they slowly give way to "more relaxed" poses.

  • BRAVO SUPER
