It's not vintage but it's pretty darn good.

Earl Burtnett & His Los Angeles Biltmore Hotel Orchestra - "Look What You've Done To Me" 1929 .... such a beautiful song

Taken in 1929 a wonderful publicity photo heralding the release of recordings of tunes from MGM's "The Broadway Melody." The film's three major players (Bessie Love, Charles King and Anita Page) can be seen here, surrounded by Earl Burtnett and his Biltmore Hotel Orchestra.

Dell Lampe and his Orchestra -- I'm Nuts About Mutts (1933)

[video=youtube;Z_P8fN0wTXI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_P8fN0wTXI&feature=channel_video_title[/video]

I'm nuts about mutts
Funny little mutts
Every kind of Bow-Wow-Wow I see
Wagging little tails
Fuzzy wuzzy tails at me

I'm nuts about mutts
Funny little mutts
Shaking up a shoe so happily
Rolling on the floor
Barking at the door tickles me

I've got one of those
Goodness only knows
He's no thoroughbred
But Oh, how he watches
That kid of mine in bed

I'm nuts about mutts
Funny little mutts
Any little Bow-Wow-Wow I see
Looking for a friend
Always can depend on me

Listening to Paul Robeson at the moment. What a voice - what a man. They sure shellacked him pretty good for being so outspoken.

Ol' Man River from the 1936 film, Showboat

This goes actually pretty well with all the Mark Twain stuff I'm reading again at the moment.
