I’m 67 years old and grew up in a neighborhood filled with WWII veterans who were my friends’ fathers. When there was a block party (in the early to mid 1960’s) all the Moms and Dads would bring out their big band music vinyl, and would blare it and dance to it all night long! None of us kids could believe OUR PARENTS could jitter-bug that much AT THEIR AGE!! (They were actually only in their late 30’s and early 40’s but to us, they were old Mom and Dad…..until we saw the jitterbug queens and kings!!). ❤❤❤ I still tear up whenever I think back on those memories. 😢

My Mom and Dad danced to "Moonlight Serenade" at their fiftieth wedding anniversary celebration in 1990. A few years later, when I moved in to care for my Mom after Dad passed away, she and I danced to Glenn Miller every Saturday in the living room. When she was in a nursing home with dementia, which held her for at least fifteen years, we danced again to the tunes as we hummed, until she could no longer walk, or dance, or sing. What warm and wonderful memories Glenn Miller's music evokes! It will always lump my throat!

I'm glad to hear you enjoy music of any kind. My mom married a man that has discouraged music in her house, so she no longer enjoys music or anything much. She's pretty much his puppet at this point. She just sits and/or sleeps on her den sofa day after day, while he does as he pleases. You're fortunate to be able to listen to this music and so am I, for that matter. I love KZbin! My dad has passed, but I like to think that he still listens to this kind of music through me. This was his favorite kind of music, and he listen to it every day. Bless his soul. He was very kind & loving to everyone. He was born a little after you. Best wishes to you and your granddaughter. I'm glad she helped you discover this fulfilling website.

@@pat4brown Thank you so much, Pat. Well, as much as it pains me to say, my mom is unable to listen to music, so long as her husband is around. As I said, he discourages any music to be played or enjoyed. He has a very dark spirit and dominates anybody that will let him. Maybe, he'll pass away before her and somehow, she could be led back to enjoy music again. It's all in the Lord's hands, now. I trust he'll work things out. God bless you, too. ~James🛡

My family reunions at my grandmother's house three or four times a year weren't complete until my dad sat at the piano, Uncle George tuned up his sax and clarinet, Uncle Bernard pulled his guitar (my guitar now :) out of its case and I plugged in my bass. Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw, the Dorsey brothers, Frank, Dean, Mel and the rest of the 'Great American Songbook' were the standards we played all night and into the next morning. I didn't realize back then the musical education I received. I also didn't realize what great times they were. They still make me smile when I reminisce.

I tell those who hear that playing a musical instrument between the 50’s + 70’s was not uncommon at all. Public schools all taught music. It was a standard sacrificed for those too angry from seeing Civil Rights being protected. That’s the beginning of the push back by the totally wrong “Right”. Some see it. Some don’t but smirk off to the side. Peace

My dad was in Germany in the US Army as a Tech Sgt. too in 1944. So many of my friends fathers served in either the European or Pacific theater too. This was definitely his music and he met my mom at a dance just after the war ended. I love the music too! Best to you.

People today have no idea of his mass popularity in the 40s. For example, at that time, jukebox plays were measured and many jukes were loaded with only Miller music!!

[@conlagrime]

My first recollection of Glenn Miller and his Orchestra was a rainy evening. I was five, sitting in front bench seat of our car, between mom and dad. Dad had the radio tuned in to a station nearby as we drove into Los Angeles. I thought that the music was beautiful. It happened to be Moonlight Serenade. Back in those days patriotism was pretty high. It was the fifties and the future was bright and hopeful. This is how I first experienced the magic of Glenn Miller and his Orchestra. Somehow that music was a part of a larger picture in those days, summing up our love of life...

[@elsagarzon3399]

Hola amigos...... estoy muy emocionada con esta musica maravillosa!!! Tengo 70 años y mi papi que ya se fué, me enseñó a bailar con estas melodias ..... nunca encontré alguien a lo largo de mis años que bailara a Glenn Miller como mi querido papá. fuí hija única y veia a mis papas bailando estas hermosas melodias que me extaciaban.... que recuerdos tan lindos.

My Dad's all-time favorite band and bandleader during Dad's war years in WW2 1940-1945. He was a soldier in the U.S. Army serving in the Army Rangers, 2nd Battalion, Company F, and landed at Pointe du Hoc on Normandy Beach on D-Day, June 6, 1944 and fought the Nazis all the way across France into Germany by war's end in May 1945. He said Glenn Miller's music "got me through the ugly stuff I had to go through to get back home."

[@williamwhitbread1885]

When dad left the merchant marines after the war and came over, met my mom and brought his love of big band music with him, always remember my parents taking me to the Dorval airport on Friday night for the ballroom dancing...loved watching them glide across the floor...Am 57 now, they're both gone...but Glenn miller will always bring back those days like they were yesterday

I am 66 and my parents danced to this sound . I still love it because of the rhythm. The parents of this generation were among the group who said that rock and roll was Satanic. They loved you and cared but sometimes forgot what their parents thought of their sound. Music makes the world a great place. I thank God for the veterans in this era for protecting the world.

My father was born in1933 as a farmers boy in the very west of Germany, shortly after Hitler came to power. He witnessed the war front coming over his village as a twelve year old and the American soldiers bringing the children chewing gum and chocolate and peace in the end. When he was grown up he bought a vinyl LP with Glenn Miller's greatest Hits. He often listened to it when I was a child. I listened to this music for myself when I was a teenager. Now I'm a grandmom myself, my grandson's father (my youngest son) is having his 25th birthday tomorrow and has been a soldier himself. I will give the inherited Glenn Miller Vinyl LP of my late father to him as a birthday present, for I know he will love it too. This music is a "must have" and "must know" to me!

My grandphather loved this music. As long as I can remember myself, we listened jazz and blues. Sometimes I think that is strange, because he lived in USSR, but he not just listened jazz, but also palyed this music. In the piano, drums and guitar. Already I am adult and now, also love to listen Glenn Miller or Benny Goodman. Unfortunately I can't play these melodies on the piano or other music musical instrument for my grandphather, but I turn on this or another videowith a good music, and he could remember his young years. More than one year, I lost him. And now, when I listen this music, remember my dear grandphather. Sometimes it's very difficult and even now, I'm writing this comment and cry.

Just sitting here listening to Glenn Miller's stuff. Trying to picture my Dad who served in the Navy, stuck in Iceland working as a radio relay operator from 1942 thru 1944. Miller apparently was top in the charts. Getting a feel of my Dads life at 20 years of age or so stuck in that lonely place. Was a completely different world then from today, just 80 years later. This was what he rocked out on, the American sound track of World War Two.
