This is a great video. One small thing I'll point out: Up top it's spelled "tangerinGe"!

@goinghomesomeday1 wow! you're a racist!! and guess what?? your generation raised ours. so who's to blame? the idiot or the idiot who raised the idiot? do you believe in evolution? because you do know that this music was frowned upon and the jazz slang back then was thought to be blasphemy. its just evolution of music and culture and its funny you mention drugs because i wonder how many musicians in this very orchestra were drug or alcohol addicts themselves. scum like you wont ever understand.

@goinghomesomeday1 What a racist comment! "Jungle gibberish" really?! It's judgmental, close-minded people like you who make the world a horrible place.

@goinghomesomeday1 I know I go to a high school where mostly everyone loves dirty south rap and my friends just listen to hard metal rock and pop. But me I listen jazz, 80's rock music, classical, and good classic music like this

@TheShapeH31 - Hello - That’s great to hear of a young person who likes this kind of music especially British bands such as Henry Hall (Teddy Bears Picnic), Al Bowley, Geraldo etc. I find that the music of today most often has no real melodic rhythm, just banging noise in comparison to yesteryear.

Am I one of the few 16 year old guys who love this kind of music

@BetsyBooth22 - Hello - Thank you for your comment. I wanted to send you a message but see that your channel is not available. Yep, the music of yeateryear is just great.

[BetsyBooth22]

@goinghomesomeday1 I agree with you wholeheartedly and I'm just a teenager. I like what you have to say. The popular music of the times directly effects how people act. When there was better music, there were better people. Thank you for being one of the very few who realize that and aren't afraid to say it.

One day I saw a ruby playing with a child the size... of a tangerine.

@BeadStallcup -- That's for sure - some voice.

[BeadStallcup]

Bob Eberly can sing! And that's all that needs to be said!

Hello - many thanks for sharing this video. My grandfather first saw this film, "The Fleet's In", in Durban, South Africa in 1942. Almost seventy years on, and only a few weeks before he died on Saturday 26 November 2011, he watched it for a second time. His cancer was taken away for the length of the film.

@soulwho -I agree - maybe I’m wrong, but it seems to me that the women of those times knew how to present themselves. When I was growing up your were always taught that "a lady should be seen and not heard".

Mind you her singing wasn’t half bad either LoL.

I wonder will we ever see her kind again and such music. WoW, it still gives me goose-bumps.
