Gigli - Pearlfishers - Nadir's aria Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 237 seconds Another specific Gigli request. Beniamino Gigli singing Mi Par D'Udir Ancora from Act 1 of Bizet's Pearlfishers, recorded for HMV in 1931. Interesting to compare with the Tino Rossi version I posted previously. Totally different. I'm not going to offer an opinion other than to say that it is beautiful singing Related: gigli, orthophonic, pearlfishers, victor |

Mills Bros. - Hold That Tiger & I Ain't Got Nobody Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 300 seconds The Mills Brothers performing Hold That Tiger and I Ain't Got Nobody in 1932. The 2nd song has been posted before but the video and sound quality of the earlier posting is not so good. I hope the Youtuber is not offended. Related: brothers, mills |

Enrico Caruso - La Donna e Mobile Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 138 seconds Caruso singing La Donna e Mobile from Verdi's Rigoletto for Victor in 1907. The correct playing speed is 75 rpm which I did not know when I uploaded this record. I played it at 78.26 rpm. Some of Caruso's earlier records played at much slower speeds and I have adjusted those postings accordingly. Related: caruso, orthophonic, victor |

Louis Armstrong & His Hot Seven - Potato Head Blues Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 197 seconds Another request. Louis Armstrong and His Hot Seven playing Potato Head Blues for Okeh in 1927. This is a 1939 repressing of the original. Related: 1920s, armstron, jazz, orthophonic, victor |

Tino Rossi - Catari! Catari! Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 209 seconds Tino Rossi singing Catari! Catari! from one of his films. Recorded for Columbia in the mid '30's. A pleasant tune well suited to his voice. Related: 1930s, orthophonic, rossi, victor |

Washboard Serenaders - Dark Eyes/St. Louis Blues Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 246 seconds The Washboard Serenaders performing Dark Eyes and the St. Louis Blues in 1936. Does anybody know who the great piano player is? Related: 1930s, jazz, serenaders, washboard |
![John McCormack - Where\](http://img.youtube.com/vi/aXf8pmam-64/2.jpg "John McCormack - Where\") |
John McCormack - Where'er You Walk Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 254 seconds John McCormack singing Handel's Where'er You Walk for HMV (Victor) in 1936. He was past his prime but this performance was very highly regarded by critics at the time. Compare with the Tibbett version I posted yesterday. I guess I should also give Webster Booth a chance. Related: handel, mccormack, orthophonic |

Jimmie Lunceford Orch. - Nagasaki Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 175 seconds The Jimmie Lunceford Orch. playing Nagasaki. My guess is that this was probably filmed around 1934. The middle trumpeter is Sy Oliver, one of the greatest jazz arrangers of all time. The talent here is extraordinary, Where can you find players today who can match those in this band?

Tino Rossi - Pearlfishers - Romance de Nadir Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 173 seconds Tino Rossi (1907-1983) singing an aria from Bizet's Pearlfishers in 1936. A small but extraordinarily beautiful voice. He was immensely popular as a pop singer from the early 30's until his death. Related: bizet, orthophonic, pearlfishers, rossi, tino, victor |

Mills Bros. - Smoke Rings Posted by: merrihew

Vita Sackville-West reads from her poem The Land Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 517 seconds Now something completely different. Vita Sackville-West (1892-1962) reading from her most famous poem The Land. Recorded by Columbia in 1931 for the International Education Society. Wonderful voice and especially good sound for 1931. Check the Wikipedia entry for her. She lead an extraordinary life. Related: columbia, sackville-west |

Gigli - Una Furtiva Lagrima Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 265 seconds My last Gigli post for today. Beniamino Gigli singing Una Furtiva Lagrima from Donizetti's L'Elisir D'Amore for Victor in 1930. Now I feel guilty for criticizing him in my Tosca post. However, the run at the very end of this record is really sloppy - but the beauty of his voice compensates. Related: gigli, orthophonic, victor |

Bing Crosby & Eddie Lang - Please & Dinah Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 124 seconds Two very brief bits from a 1932 film. Bing Crosby singing Please with Eddie Lang on the guitar and then Dinah. Lang and Crosby were very close. Lang died soon after this film was made during a routine operation. Crosby was devastated by the loss. This is Crosby at his zenith. Related: bing, crosby, eddie, lang |

Boswell Sisters - Lousiana Waddle Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 99 seconds The Boswell Sisters singing Lousiana Waddle. Related: boswell, sisters |

Carl Orff - Music for 1936 Olympics Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 534 seconds This is a strange record. Its music that Carl Orff wrote for the 1936 German Olympics. A youth orchestra is conducted by Gunild Keetman. Although famous for Carmina Burana, Orff mostly wrote music for children to play, often collaborating with Keetman. Certainly not the bombast you would except from the Nazi's Olympics.

Noel Coward & Yvonne Printemps - I'll Follow My Secret Heart Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 391 seconds Noel Coward and Yvonne Printemps performing I'll Follow My Secret Heart from Coward's play Conversation Piece recorded for HMV in 1934. This sort of thing is out of fashion these days but it has a sort of period charm. Related: conversation, coward, hmv, piece, printemps |

Boswell Sisters - Stardust Posted by: merrihew
Video duration: 326 seconds The Boswell Sisters singing Stardust supported by the Brunswick Concert Orch. conducted by Victor Young recorded in 1932. Sorry that the record is so worn. Related: 1930s, boswell, brunswick, sistors, young |
