All though I will always love Rudy, Al bowllys version is my favorite

AS A CHILD I WAS VERY INTERESTED IN THAT PIVOTAL YEAR OF 1929. SILENTS TO SOUND. ANNE FRANK BORN. JACKIE KENNEDY BORN. AUDREY HEPBURN BORN. " WALL STREET LAYS AN EGG"

I wonder if this is what Joe Brown based his version on when he played it at the Concert for George. It's very similar.

Have grown to love many of his songs. He has a haunting voice

Tiny Tim has me watching this.😢

HAD THERE BEEN NO BING RUDY WOULD HAVE BEEN AN IDOL FOR 20 MORE YEARS. BUT BING DID HAPPEN ZOOMED TO #1 AND BURIED EVERYONE ELSE. THAT HAVING BEEN SAID I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS. RUDY YOU WERE A GENTLEMAN AND A CLASS ACT.

Maine boy

Caught in the Web of Love number..outstanding..2024 movies have alot to learn! 👍

Watch the fourth guy from the right drop his cane at 2.36. He grabs it quickly and gets back in line, but I suppose they were too far into the piece to re-shoot. Hope whoever he was didn't get in trouble for it.

Not exactly an electrifying presence, but he was immensely popular.

I'm impressed with the fact that these recordings were created in a time before engineering became predominant in the music industry. There is no technology to rely on...just plain talent. The song had to be captured in that particular take, and if any one musician erred, it had to be done all over. No over dubbing, no stereo, no multi-track recording, no synthesizers. It is really remarkable, the quality of these recordings for the time they were made, and in many ways it is far better than the popular music of today.

Stanley Kubrick listened to this during the making of The Shining. you can see it in the Making Of documentary for the film. Its the part when stanley puts a vinyl onto a record player.

This song stands alone

Oh, love songs

I bump this in my GMC

EATEOT sample G1.

Hervorragende Jazzband und Musikstück!😊❤

The singers rhythm is not very good

It's crazy how fast things change in just a 100 years.

Look at Esther Ralston! Gorgeous face and beautiful hair styled the way I love on women.

That dude in the beginning is creeping me out

Helen Kane. She was the model for Betty Boop

Man what movie is this? 🤨

Beautiful voice and style. Great personality, and good-looking (when he was young.)

Westbrook Maine's most famous son.

Today we would have some idiot whining to a guitar...

Compare this with what passes for "music" nowadays..

Sorry in advance, your comment section is probably going to be filled up with podcast listeners. Great music, and happy Malevolent episode 43!!

95 years old but I like it, live orchestra and live action on stage. I'm 77, that's probably why.

It's amazing these guys were so popular in their and now they are almost unknown.

Thank you big bill Murphy rudee truly is an artist

Wonderful song

Me when I have the memory of a song:

Ginger Rogers started out having to sing in this same baby doll voice.

The meanest s.o.b. who ever worked in entertainment. A special place in hell was waiting on him..just above Hitler.

I remember being ten years old when my mother took me to see this.

You wont read this anywhere else because it was swept under the rug by Rudy. My grandfather by marriage, Raymond Rogers of Cape Cod, was Rudy's bastard child. When Rudy was young and hopping around venues in New England, he ended up meeting a young lady whom he had a short relationship with. At one point, she found out she was pregnant with Rudy's child. After Raymond was born, Rudy would be there for him while he grew up and would take Raymond to a camp at Moosehead Lake in Maine, just about every summer. They'd also do other various father-son activities in Rudy's free time. Due to Raymond being born while they were unmarried, that would be considered scandalous at the time and possibly career-ruining as a celebrity. Because of the scandalous nature, once Raymond was older and almost a teenager, Rudy disowned him completely at that point, and abandoned Raymond for the rest of his life. Raymond ended up despising Rudy for what he had done, and never had a good thing to say about him, according to my grandmother. Ray has been gone for a while now, but in the past few years my grandmother has mailed me an envelope with newspaper clippings about Rudy, and a handful of family photos from Moosehead Lake of Ray, Rudy, and other friends and family. I wish I had a way to scan the pictures so I could upload them, which was my grandmother's plan originally when she mailed them to me. I don't recall hearing anything about Rudy being abusive, but Ray never forgave him for the abandonment, choosing fame over his own son.

I wonder if anyone thinks that the phrase "Roaring '20s" refers to the 2020s.

It's so weird listening to a song from the (19)20s in the (20)20s.

I met Rudy when he was in his 80’s just before i became the secretary at RKO pictures in 1982.

Whatever happened to Big Band & Vaudeville banjo ? Bluegrass isn't Everything !

All of the whileeee

This video was uploaded exactly 16 years ago today. Today is March 25,2024. And I loved this duet💯

I’ve been so hooked on this song lately, and I’m not even mad lol. Plus, we are on our second round of the 20’s right now 😉

I could show the world how to smile I could be glad all of the while I could change the grey skies to blues If I had you I could leave the old days behind Leave all my pals, I'd never mind I could start my life all a new If I had you I could climb the snow capped mountains Sail the mighty ocean wide I could cross the burning desert If I had you by my side I could be a king, dear, uncrowned Humble or poor, rich or renowned There is nothing I couldn't do If I had you

thanks for sharing the org crooner of the 1920s 95yrs later!

....the early Cirque Du Soleil?

I love the real Music I grew up on it to think this is from 1930
