I CAN'T GET STARTED - Bunny Berigan 1937

This is recorded from a 12 inch 78 rpm record so the song is about 5 minutes long, significantly longer than the 3 minutes or so allowed by the typical 10 inch 78 rpm record. Cool! Bunny Berigan and his orchestra perform I Can't Get Started with Bunny Berigan performing the vocals. Recorded in 1937. The flip side is The Prisoner's Song. Enjoy!

Dizzy elevated this song even more so. Go Bop!

For me no one ever topped this version. The defining song of its era.

A classic of swing era jazz.

A new biography of Bunny Berigan is now available: "Mr. Trumpet--the Trials, Tribulations and Triumph of Bunny Berigan" by Michael P. Zirpolo. For more info, search Mr. Trumpet.

Without a doubt the greatest recording of 1937. I was born 3 years later and this was the first record my mother bought for me and I played it over and over and just could never get tired of it. Amazing how it holds up today and still brings some tears to my eyes.
