@@77CreationThere is nothing that I enjoy more than when a completely stupid and tasteless ignoramus willingly advertises his sad shortcomings for all the world to see. Right, dummy, the white man stole jazz from the black man. If you would have stated that utter nonsense to the likes of a Louis Armstrong or a Miles Davis you would have to deal with the great contempt that you would have seen in their eyes. Or maybe they would have just broke into wild and raucous laughter at your absurd and proud stupidity. So in your book, a young horn player, of whatever ethnicity besides African, hears and is greatly moved by some jazz piece but better know that he dare not pick up his horn in response to the thrilling music he is hearing because from your addled point of view, that would be theft. I’m more than sure that you blab this nonsense a lot and probably get more than a few takers, which would only prove one thing….stupidity is everywhere.

This is the outdoor concert scene from the 1942 20th Century Fox film musical Orchestra Wives. The first song played is the instrumental "Boom Shot" which is followed by the encore "At Last" performed in the duet version with vocals by Ray Eberle and Pat Friday (lip-synched by Lynn Bari in the film). "Boom Shot" is played on the Wurlitzer juke box and then at the open air concert featuring Harry Morgan as soda jerk Cully Anderson and Ann Rutherford as Connie Ward. They go to see the Gene Morrison Orchestra featuring George Montgomery as Bill Abbott on trumpet. After performing "Boom Shot" the band leaves the stage. The audience is still on their feet. The band returns to play an encore, "At Last" featuring Ray Eberle and Lynn Bari (overdubbed by Pat Friday). "At Last" was composed by Harry Warren, music, and Mack Gordon, lyrics. Glenn Miller first recorded the song in 1941. "At Last" first appeared in the 1941 film Sun Valley Serenade in an instrumental version performed by Glenn Miller in the cafe scene after the 1941 version of "In the Mood" is played. "At Last" is also played as background music in Sun Valley Serenade and during the final ice skating scene but without the lyrics. John Payne and Pat Friday recorded a version with vocals with the Glenn Miller Orchestra in 1941 for the movie but the song was not used in that film.

Ah yes, the Big Band Era, big dance crowd so the songs had a long intro by the band before the singer started, like above, and like Sinatra with Tommy Dorsey also.

To anyone reading this, please don't think this is 'old persons' music…I was a 15 year old, playing this tune (and others similar) in a 'Big Band' on lead clarinet, back in 1986 and loved it…And now I'm reading these comments in 2023. Timeless music is timeless music and I'm only 52.

I enjoyed watching this. Thanks for posting. No one commented about the camera work. I liked it because it gave a dreamlike quality to the recording. After decades of watching movies, I've never seen anything like it, so you are a very creative person, callron1. After hearing this song so much, including at public jam sessions and open mics, it is nice to hear a version that expresses more clearly the songwriter's ideas and vision. If Etta James chose this song above all others to make her mark, she must have heard something in it. Both versions are authentic, imo. Not sure how anyone could not value Ms. James' contribution. It obviously strikes a chord with many hearers.

Robert Galardi: maybe we stopped caring for both them and us. Me, I’ve got a most special lady in my life, and we have listened (and danced) to a lot of Big Band jazz. One of our favorites is “Rhapsody in Blue” by Glenn Miller.

This describes exactly how I feel about my late-in-life love. He came along after my 5-1/2 years of sleeping-walking thru life after losing my husband of 38 years. Coincidentally, he had lost his long-time wife and reached out to me, the widow of his boyhood friend. 🥰

What a gorgeous version of this song. My mom walked down the aisle to this song so it kinda holds a sentimental place in my heart. The ending to this version is absolutely phenomenal with that trumpet! That is something that the 78 rpm version doesn’t have. Thanks for posting!
