[MissMittens]

bought the entire collection of Antonio Vivaldi this week.
There just is so much summer in this music of his, I really love it

[/IMG]

Actually, he covers all 4 seasons :rofl:

 

[Fletch]

He just the jam man in the band...

...now I know you understand. Gene Kardos & Orch., 1932, will proto-swing ya.
(You really should hear this one, if only because there are just 2 copies of the original 78 known to exist today.)

Here's how to make things OK...

...Just Whistle and Blow Your Blues Away. Johnny Hamp & Orch., 1932.
No whistling, but jazz fiddle by Carl Grayson (né Graub), whom you may know as a Spike Jones City Slicker.

Annette Hanshaw -- Lovable And Sweet (1929)

[video=youtube;lVTYD2PB9jg]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVTYD2PB9jg[/video]

One of my favorites of Annette's. Lovable and sweeet - indeed.

 

[Fletch]

Oh yeah. Best part is she doesn't cutesy it up at all.

My fave of that tune is by Ambrose, but it doesn't turn up often, as his early records were not very popular.

Things you get if you type it looks like into Google:
...we made it
...spilled milk
...rain
...you're writing a letter
...you're installing windows
...dirty socks
...a little meatball
...a sad old man. Hey, I resemble that remark.

She was cute enough

The lyrics to this one always hit me hard.

 

[Fletch]

Black Coffee - Ray Nichols & Four Towers Orch., 1935, singing the praises of the drunkard's curative. Sounds as tho half the rhythm section was too hungover to make the date.
