Billy Murray & Aileen Stanley - When I was the Dandy (1924)

Billy Murray (1877 - 1954), Aileen Stanley (1897 - 1982)

By the time Billy Murray was paired with Aileen Stanley for a series of memorable recordings, the day of Edison's two-minute vaudeville sketches bring pressed into soft black wax were ancient history in terms of technology, but despite his advancing years, the pugnaciously dapper Murray let the years fall away and his voice, which remained virtually unchanged, beautifully complimented the soft tones delivered by Aileen Stanley --- a vocalist equally adept at wailing jazz, dialects, scatter-brained comedic impersonations and simply a wistful young woman of the 1920's pining for love.
