That's Mr Torrance's job.

[@1ELEGZER]

Perhaps they need a good talking to, if you don't mind my saying so. Perhaps... a bit more

[@rufousthefox9766]

Did you know, Mr Torrance, that your son is attempting to bring an outside party into this situation?

[@jonassenify]

Ryan Johnson 1923 to be precise

[@jonassenify]

Michael Myers and who is that?

[@MrBuddybones]

When everyone else was playing disco or rock when I was in high school, my grandparents turned me on to their music with a best of album of classic big band recordings. I have loved the music of the ‘30s and ‘40s ever since. Gorgeous band.

[@MattTolentino]

Thank you!

[@YouTubesucksdick]

Only the ghost of big band remains to those who can see it.

This song is magic, beautiful in 1934, 1978, 1999, 2020!!!! This has no time!...Bravo!!!!!. Big orchestra!

[@ArmandoGarridoMusic]

one of the best classics of 1934

I was walking along Ealing Broadway in London,I think it was 1982/3,when I spotted a guy I thought I knew. I couldn't quite remember where I had seen him before,and then it dawned on me who he was. Grady ,the caretaker from the Shining. He saw me looking across at him and smiled Actor Philip Stone in real life, Regret not asking for his autograph,but I didn't want to bother the man. I believe he was a real gentleman. And a wonderful actor.

[@thegoldenageofalbowlly2759]

Funny enough I lived in Hanwell around that time. That is me as in me and not Al 😜

[@andrewns9141]

Brilliant - I think this music is timeless - eventually it will come back into vogue - and hopefully society will realize the wonders of social dancing....

[@YouTubesucksdick]

Unfortunately, it won't. As much as i hate to say it, it can't, and won't. Songs like this were of an era, and with auto tune, it won't be real. Al bowlly, Benny Goodman, bob Crosby, bing Crosby, Andrew sisters, cannot make a comeback, because record company's want NEW. They want voices of a new generation. When this music died, it died forever. Only it's ghost lingers to those who can see it. 😥

[@that1toad64]

Well, your wish sort of came true. With The Caretaker, this generation has been exposed to this era of music and they enjoy it.

Thank you! Love your videos, too!

Matt Tolentino thanks Matt!

[@MrDaiseymay]

Excellent. It's great to see people dancing to this favourite fox-trot of mine. One of my lifes regrets, nor learning to dance, Ballroom style. I took lessons, but the two left feet problem was too rooted.

[@7Yearsmarty]

Been away, Lloyd, but now I’m back

[@rufousthefox9766]

Good evening, Mr Torrance. It's good to see you.

[@NeonDefense385]

Omg I thought those kinda dance doesn't exist anymore im crying

[@PriyankaDas-fe6hm]

It's a romantic song.

[@Disregardedinc]

There’s gonna be a new generation of people dancing to stuff like this thanks to a project called the caretaker which uses this kind of music to make a story about dementia but it made a whole new generation of young people love this kinda music from the early 1900s

[@thegoldenageofalbowlly2759]

Wow that takes me back a bit. Excellent work guys and great dancing too. Well done everyone 💗

[@MattTolentino]

Thank you for those kind words! Anytime you embark on performing such a well known recording via a transcription, well, you're bound not to please everyone, if you know what I mean, so I appreciate your comment. Thank you!

You really capture the feeling of the song. Excelent.

[@Matt78collector]

Amazing rendition of the song!

[@MattTolentino]

Thank you! It's hard whenever you post a recreation of such an iconic recording - if it's not 110% right you'll hear about it!

[@TheSteinmetzen]

A trained ear would know that the sax prolonged his solo, just a tad bit too long stealing the beautiful entrance of the piano....but most people probably wouldn't have noticed, except for the piano attempting to recover from its normal re-entry. Regardless, the strings help to recover it. It is a beautiful rendition. Bowlly would have been delighted.

[@i.c.a.productionsbyr.p.]

This song is really an "evergreen", always! Nice, very nice orchestra and singer ✌️

It's a transcription from Mike Henebry. You might be able to get it at BigBandTranscriptions.com
