[@johnc.gibson8263]

Dance music at its best. Better than the garbage of today.

[@Evan_Saur]

The person I marry must have a love for this kind of music.

[@jagmiddleton]

i was amazed hat my Hawkwind & Jefferson Airplane & Gong loving husband also loves this. we listen to it often & still love the other music too. Hardly watch tv but after 40 years we definitely laugh more than we argue and enjoy each others company, I feel blessed.

[@lincbond442]

I noticed that all of the comments here are very positive. It's wonderful when music brings out the best in people.

[@pax41]

I agree!

You know, one day my grandfather wasn’t acting like himself, and the family tried anything to make him feel better… So I played some music from this Chanel and he was so happy

[@phredl]

The first time I heard "High Society Blues" It just blew me away.

[@MrDaiseymay]

I suppose it helped to shut out the poverty and evil festering around the corner.

[@Trombonology]

Gems all! The British orchestras had their own unique slant on dance band music. I hadn't run across these Noble sides before -- lovely, like all Ray's work.

[@EMRT-b90]

Einfach nur Schöne Musik

[@larryhagemann5548]

Peaceful and joyous. Always a delight to hear.

[@Griffinmc]

Love hearing the guys singing the girl songs (South Sea Rose) -- you can take it anyway you like, and it's all great. Thanks for keeping this neglected period of pop music alive, sir.

[@pax41]

You are very welcome and thanks for watching my channel.

[@Alkrys1]

Without a doubt 1920's and1930's were the golden years of British popular dance music.Lovely selection!

[@patrickobrien1566]

I like the photo at the end of the members of a 1930's dance band probably touring. There is not a tee shirt, jeans or pair of sneakers to be seen, I love the plus 4's and certainly no tattoos......!!! Although, I have noticed recently that there are new groups that are dressing much nicer ( depending on ones idea of what nice is ) than in the past. I know of course there are trends in every generation that have to go through different stages until they fizzle out and let in new trends. I am pleased that the trend for showing ones underpants tops and trousers that have waists so near the crotch they seems to be fighting gravity and have to be pulled up frequently to observe some kind of decorum. Also the trend for girls and some women wearing tops that found it difficult to reach the waist or hip line, causing much midriff skin to be exposed. When I was a teenager in the 1950's I wore my hair in a D.A ( Ducks arse),drainpipe trousers ( I see "Skinny trousers have become popular ) Brothel creepers, they were thick crepe soled shoes of various colours......finger tip jackets, so named because the length had to be where your finger tips came to when your arms were by your side, usually they came with a velvet collar and the material was often a black & white check called hound's-tooth, ones socks were all kinds of colours, anything but black, unless you were a bohemian, then black was a must. Bohemians wore long black turtle, polo, or round neck jumpers ( sweaters) white shirts corduroy trousers usually black or beige and narrow shoes, they frequented coffee houses, basement clubs where poetry was read or folk music was played but traditional jazz was their main music. There were trad bands all over the place & some like Chris Barber are still performing. I bought a Lambretta scooter and became a MOD,I wore box jacket suits and winkle picker shoes. I have found it interesting watching all the trends during my life, some have been less than flattering but all have been innovative and have created an industry of their own. I heard cries of bewilderment and no hope for the future from my elders regarding my clothes and hair and have at times found myself doing the same, nothing really changes but I try not to bee too critical, I like to think of it as me being observant.

[@211Anon]

This is a wonderful comment, thank you. From a 24 year-old.

[@phillipecook3227]

Surmising that you were amongst the first generation of British teenagers ....

[@peterschuurhof6141]

Glad I can help and thank you both for watching my channel!

[@paulphelps7809]

How about a revival of this sort of music; wouldn't that be good?!

[@pax41]

It would be great! My second largest viewership comes from those between 24 and 34, so maybe it is happening.

[@bobbyroy84]

A-MEN To That!!!

[@bluecanary1note]

Paul McCartney did it to some extent (Honey Pie, Martha My Dear, You Gave Me the Answer). And today there are swing bands out there (eg Squirrel Nut Zippers). Also there's electroswing.

[@guntherdertz9554]

First song i can rember hearing was al jolson singing "sonny boy", ear phones with a crystal set, i was about 3 years old. Since then have enjoyed thusands of 3 minutes masterpieces. Believe there iis hope for us, at 91 thats a long believe.

[@pax41]

I only recently saw an ad for headphones from the 1920's and was surprised they had them back then.

[@richardmoon1852]

Thanks again.

[@paulj0557tonehead]

# 2 cycled through twice with me thinking it was Shanghai Lil until I realized it was Crying For The Carolines. Sounds like the two ran into each other. There were literally thousands of tracks back then huh'? You know, I used to have lots of early 1900's guitar magazines and you wouldn't believe what a huge popularity the guitar had. There were guitar clubs with chapters in every State. The youth just ate up the whole idea of creating new tunes and sharing them with others, but even if they weren't the creative type there were many who became proficient enough to accompany their pals singing at get togethers. Records existed certainly, but it was not uncommon for impromtu live music to fill the air. Band leaders picked up on this loose, and often jovial feel of guitar and banjo strumming and incorporated it with the steady, but loose feel of the hi-hat rhythm. Suddenly a new kind of music was born that was the perfect musical antidote for the prohibition era.

[@ariontheobaldo5794]

Thanks for sharing all your music knowledge; also you have much experience on pop culture.

What a group -- all GREAT -- and my favorites !!! But for this set .... I have to say that I'm really partial to "the JACK'S" !!!

[@pax41]

Good choices Sandy, always glad you enjoy these.

[@larryhagemann5548]

Great music of the era from the other side of the ocean. WW1 took its toll on the population but great music from these British dance-bands brought back the joy in life.

[@pax41]

This post is in the top 10 on the channel and British music posts in general are very popular.

[@waltergray7722]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful post. Every one a gem ! Sounds like Pat O'Malley on # 6

One of my favorite songs and I have other versions of it posted on my channel.

[@gustavonesrala2154]

trilha sonora perfeita

[@qiyumusic]

Song 4 - Jay Wilbur & His Orchestra - Shadows On The Window - vocal by Carlyle Cousins - recorded 9/24/1932. I've heard this one from different play list, i actually like it a lot :)

[@pax41]

Yes, that one is on the playlist of songs just by Jay Wilbur & his orchestra. Great song!

[@blondecarmen]

[@chrisyonts9652]

I'm only 58 and my next wife must look like Claire Luce in 1930 and be able to follow my lead (when dancing to this music).

[@nigelbarrett4091]

Jay Wilbur I think died in S.A. in 1969-it seemed a popular country after the war for Brits. as other famous personalities lived there-David Farrar the debonair 40,s actor ,Albert Coates,Wally Hammond,Denis Compton and Ann Ziegler and Webster Booth were all attracted by it.

[@pax41]

Interesting Nigel, I believe I read Ludwig Ruth went to S.A. and I think Van Phillips too.

[@DuaneHanlon]

(Instrumental Music Used As Score For Silent Cartoons In Before Sound) !!

[@nigelbarrett4091]

In Albert Coates,s case one reason he left U.K. for America and S.A. was that he was never given the full control of a symphony orchestra-he ran away with Vera De Villiers to spite the husband who controlled the finances of the L.S.O.. Coates,s step son farmed in Zimbabwe at Marondera but was not interested in me mentioning his famous step father who died in Cape Town in 1953- Jay Wilbur must have known Coates.

So many American bandleaders set up in England and the London clubs and so much better in their musical arrangements than their home bands examples Jay Wilber,Carol Gibbons,Roy Fox and the Staritas to name a few,great.

I did not know that Jay Wilber was American, thank you for sharing.

phredl When I was a young boy in the 1940's I used to listen to Jack Hylton,Ambrose & his orchestra,Henry Hall & Billy Cotton plus others who's names escape me at the present.The BBC light programme had a few hours per day featuring dance bands plus workers playtime for the factory workers,there were programmes for the forces overseas that featured music too.

[@ranoosamagic9068]

can anyone name to me the last song of jack hylton please ?

[@wehrhaftedemokratie4624]

oh, Jackie Hylton for you I leave my plate with Stilton and sway away I even start to think about starting with tap-dance again & shout WOHOOO - HEY, HEY !!! and Mr. Ambrose such a sweet dose of hmmm ... hmmm ... hmmm ... musical seduction THANK YOU, BOB you get me going !!! a man with such a good taste can't go wrong COME UP AND SEE ME SOMETIME ;-) an old german Lady of 58 ...

[@jourwalis-8875]

Please explain to me what "Crying For The Carolines" mean. What "Carolines"?

[@RoderickFernandez-ps5ci]

The state of Carolina there were lots of songs in the twenties and thirties about The South The Old South with happy slaves singing and dancing thank God that's over

[@WinnieFinesse]

Do you know if any of these are public domain?

[@pax41]

Verycuteyeah Any recording made in the UK before 1940 are now in the public domain. If someone has remastered them, like those on my channel, the remastered version won't qualify as public domain. It could be claimed under current copyright laws since it has been remastered. US copyright is a whole other can of worms.
