I haven't seen this one before, this is so special to me to see my great grandmother singing so sweetly - the one on the left

They sing the most amazing harmonies! I've heard them on vinyl-on a rare Irving Berlin called "It's Up to the Band" and those intricate hamonies are really fab.

I was looking for an MP3 on Limewire and couldn't find anything. I first heard a shorter version in Woody Allan's great musical "Everyone Says I Love You". It was the opening number, sung by Ed Norton to Drew Barrymore viewed through the fountains on Fifth Avenue in front of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This is a longer beautiful version. I think Woody must have been aware of it because the musical accompaniment is similar. I wish i could get these additional lyrics.

@brijem ........I just sent you a long note asking if I too could get your sheet music, but as happens so often, I got an error note. I'm probably too wordy. I'd be happy to give you my email address if you could send it as an attachment. Whatever it takes, if you would be so kind. Perhaps I can reciprocate with something you need. I have a lot of sheet music. Thanks. Joe

Actually, Park and Tilford was a carriage trade grocer in New York, They were also liquor importers and had a cosmetics line. They stopped
selling liquor during the depression and nearly went broke. After repeal they went back into the
liquor business and sold to Schenley around 1953.

but pretty..

This tune is hauntingly beautiful.

If they were given more songs like this one—in which their voices are beautiful—they'd still be known today. Unfortunately, most of their music is faster stuff that doesn't fit their voices.
