Midnight The Stars and You. Yeah where’d Kubrick come up with that haunting song? Look as I might it didn’t seem to be in the credits at the end of “ The Shining” then one day I found the song on You Tube and discovered Al Bowlly.

Al was a JOCKEY

I Love Al. Bowlly, Mum did too, I am now 89. Often play his music on my piano in twenties style…what a marvellous voice..

i'LL BE WATCHING MY ''PENNIES FROM HEAVEN '' AGAIN TONIGHT. LONG TIME NO SEE.

Glad I stumbled across this & learned about Al Bowlly. It's such a shame it took so long.

A WONDERFUL PROGRAMME. HOW DID I MISS THIS, THANK YOU FOR SHARING IT.

Al will forever haunt my dreams. I have loved him since i was about 10 years old. Way before my time I'm very sad to say. Also a devoted fan. ❤😢❤

También soy fan del crooner Al Bowlly y colecciono sus canciones y son extraordinarias...

I have The Shining to thank for my exposure to Al Bowlly

Great Singer with an unmistakable Voice

Cinescreen, absolutely riveting, how you unfolded and displayed Al Bowlly..and he is still lauded.

God I miss Rich Conaty. He brought me this music decades ago.

Absolutely lovely !

😢 if you read this search bowl lee

Seria bueno la version en español. Saludos desde Colombia 🇨🇴

He looks like a cross between a young Cary Grant , Al Jolson and Danny Thomas ! Rest in peace Mr. Bowlly

Both of my grandmothers loved Al Bowlly. They were both young women in the 30s, and always talked about how attractive he was. I think he was maybe one of the Elvises of their generation.

How come nobody talks about the Filipino band he played with in Indonesia 1924?

They did screw up his birthday a little…he was born in 1898, NOT 1899…

It’s really sad that this guy’s life was cut so short because of the fact that a Luftwaffe mine bomb detonated outside of his house/apartment complex (yes I am American). Really sad stuff. Who knows what else he could have achieved had that bomb not go off. Discovered this dude through Ready Player One/The Shining.

The bathroom during the ball scene in The shining. The song It’s all forgotten now was playing and that’s how I discovered Al Bowlly. His music makes me think I’m in Paris having coffee and a cigarette reading the newspaper on a balcony looking out to the Eiffel tower in the 1920s.

Thank you so much for posting this. Beautiful music and documentary. It is, however, rather stupid and distracting to have that fake, prop gramophone in the background for almost every interview. Someone tell the Millennial set decorator and director that outside horn gramophones were already twenty years out of fashion before Bowlly recorded a single note. The fact that it's fake makes it worse!

but very important documentary.

the music disturb compreemsion !! Too loud music.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

I'm so grateful for this video documentary. Thank you!

49:20 real excellent tenor for Manrico

Long to see part two ! Where can i find it ?

Fascinati Thank you Enjoy every bit

Has there ever been a film made portraying him and his life? If so what was it called?

It was The singing detective that got me into the music of that era .and The Shining If we were back in those days and i wanted to cast someone to play him in a film, id choose Cary Grant to play him. I wasn't around in that era but it seems to transport me to that period, its a great antidote to the modern technological world. Great stuff 😊👍

One of the greatest singers - up there with the legends -Sinatra, Grosby, and Elvis Presley, the public discovered - too late - that at the very least - he was the greatest singer produced by Britain between the wars and was a victim of the second - there is a film waiting to be made - there was talk once - it was decided that his death robbed the narrative of a happy ending - a third act - but, there is a third act - it is happening now thanks to a revival and interest in his voice and work

al bowlly is the hottest man who ever lived holy shmut

Excellent , I love it

But he still alive 87 years latter!!! Yes, his music!!!

Al Bowlly continues to be discovered by each new generation--primarily because of You Tube. His music doesn't die or get forgotten because he is truly unforgettable.

And listening to him since I was in my country (Iran)... Now I live in United States and I'm still listening.... Smooth voice..

"Visconti was a lifelong Communist"....what a nonsens!!! He symphatized with the italian Commies after the second WW. After that he became more and more distant. He was a sharp critic of the 68-saloon-leftists and was afraid of a new leftish fascism.

Great singer the best

I'm a teenager, in 2016 I started listening to music like Jazz, and in general music from the 20s to the 50s (which was strange since I hear a lot of metal) but it turns out that many of the songs I listened to were Al Bowlly songs, I realised that when I saw an analogue horror series better known as "Fnaf VHS" in 2021, In one of these fictional tapes I discovered that one of the songs I had heard appeared there, I began to investigate and learned about it, one of the best decisions of my life, his music really encourages me a lot.

God tier

any chance to see part 2?
