    I'm from Russia. And we were allies with the United States in World War II (and in the first as well). My mother was 14 years old, but she always remembered the American processed cheese that she took with her to the cinema in 1942. It was given to children on the advice of doctors. It was so delicious that she ate it and fell asleep in the hall. And an American film was shown - "Serenade of the Sunny Valley" with the Glenn Miller orchestra. Then she was hungry and very scared. But this funny musical movie, as well as American stew and cheese, saved many Russians. Glenn Miller's music, she loved all her life. He gave many the strength to survive. Why are we such enemies now?

      Because of Stalin

      And unfortunately former Communistic Putin.
      The Russian people ( 600,000- 40 MILLION ) were slaughtered by Stalin...
      Over here in US I've friends of those whose parents escaped. Prior to WWII the revolution was horrific, and post WWII, Cold War era people lived in constant hyper vigilance.
      I have friends of Eastern European decent. 😢

These guys were the rockers of their day and its easy to see why it became so big. All those horns playing "decadent" music. The real, original wall of sound.

      There's a binaural (= near-stereo) copy of the performance available on CD. It was reassembled from separate tracks that Fox had recorded to get better balance. Plus the frequency range goes up to something like 16 kHz, or almost high fidelity. It’s about as close to hearing the band live as any of us can be fortunate to experience.

    February 12, 2014: From the 1963 graduating class of Paschal High School, Fort Worth, Texas--Happy 100th birthday to a great Paschal alumnus, the late Gordon Lee ("Tex") Beneke! You and Mr. Miller and all your associates did so much to boost the morale and determination of so many Americans during one of our country's darkest times. It was our parents' generation, and in memory of our parents and all other members of their generation--The Greatest Generation--who served the cause of liberty in so many ways, military and civilian alike, during and after that time, so that we might have the opportunity to enjoy the lives we have lived, we proudly salute you! Your wonderful music sounds as good today as ever!

      Actually, you're not hearing what you're seeing. For a movie, they record the piece in a studio first. Then, they film the scene while the studio recording is playing on speakers on the set. The performers play their instruments, the singers sing their songs, all in sync with the playback. Since most movies in that era were filmed with one camera, they would do this several times using different camera setups from different angles and then the editor would work their magic to produce the final cut. It's still impressive and enjoyable, but you're not really watching a true "live performance."

    Dad loved Big band. Glenn Miller and Benny Goodman were his favorites. It was the ONE good thing he gave me--the love of Big Band/Swing music.

    Usually people who are into music like a lot of different genre's. I was raised on this stuff but I don't listen to it all the time. When the big bands were popular my dad ran a venue and had them all live so we had all their records.

    I can always listen to this and music like this will never die, unlike some 1 hit wonder pop hits. This is true music with real musicians and no help from anyone in a studio pushing buttons. Long Live Glenn Miller's music.

    No wonder this was the first song to get a gold record for over a million copies sold! Glenn Miller was one of the all time best, no doubt! His music is still timeless and had a creative arrangement hardly heard anymore.

    When i was a child, i always watched a movie called Babe: Pig in the city and it was the first time i heard this song. In the movie a duck flies to catch the plane and this song sounds in that scene. Also there are other songs that are remarkable like this such as That's Amore by Dean Martin. Amazing movie amazing song!

    Why is it that the bass players are such an important part of the band and yet are so overlooked by so many people. Not only was this bass player good, he was funny. Viva la bass players!!!!

  • @jmrodas9
    @jmrodas9 7 лет назад +1

    This tune and song was one of my late Dad's favorites. He really liked Glenn Miller and now I am old I understand why. I like the nice tones the musicians get from their instruments and how they are played in the exact time to make this a really great tune and song. And the words the singers sing are slow and thus easy to understand. Very good as now they sing so fast one barely understands what they are saying.

      I saw them in Brisbane in the '80s,( probably the same tour) Tex Beneke was leading the band. Paula Kelly Jnr was the female vocalist. They had the usual 'encore' at the end of the show. Tex Beneke thought we might like to hear their 'latest record'. It was 'In The Mood' - it brought the house down (Festival Hall) with people of all ages dancing in te isles. It was a terrific sound and I am so glad I heard it live. Many of the original band were there as well as Tex.

    My late wife Mary, who was never big on music like me, was made a believer after watching "The Glenn Miller Story". It hit her, the ending of the movie, and Glenn Miller period. And I know I can't bring myself to watch that final war service scene, and then the devastating blow to Mrs. Miller. I sadly and psychologically meld the latter scene with finding my beloved pet Albino Parakeet Susie (Susan Denise) dead . And then some ten years later, Mary.
