    "... THE GENTLE ART OF SMOKING." That's one way of putting it I suppose.

    I would have been around 10 when these ads were on - my sister and I loved them, the ultimate in sophistication

    My father Brian was Marketing Director for Paton in Melbourne... I remember all this as a kid and loved it! Thank goodness I never took up smoking! I loved that music - I guess it's original? Does it have a name?

    • @MeMarcInOz
      @MeMarcInOz  Год назад +2

      I remember Brian very fondly. Patons was about a decade ahead of other agences having a Marketing Director on board.
      The Dunhill theme was composed before musical genius Bruce Clark and recorded in his studio.

    I cannot thanks you enough for these ads. I was around 14yrs old when I heard the 'House Of Dunhill Music'on these adds and have tried to hear them again for years. Just can't believe my luck. Thanks so much. I am enjoying the commentary, but that beautiful music is fantastic . Thanks again and cheers.

      ⁠@@dwightdodd3734But I have reached the conclusion that some of the consequences arising from the reduction of smoking levels include the higher levels of obesity and increased levels of mental stress and illness that seem to be part of our modern world

  • @johndean958
    @johndean958 7 лет назад +6

    Thankyou for these wonderful advertisments. I have always loved the music that accompanies them. I always wanted to know where did this beautifully refined music come from.Thanks for telling me. The rolls royces and the over voice all add to the refinement of the presentation. But the music stands out to me most of all.Can't believe my luck to hear it again.thanks

    Oh that's a shame! I was hoping to find the one I was in - around 1972. Two racing yachts and a maroon Jensen Interceptor. Really lovely model and good actor who was a useless sailor. Big budget stuff with helicopter shots and Lutie and Stormvogel hired for several days. What fun!

    70s? Marcus that's not good enough for me 😀. I have a thing about films/books wanting to know the dates of them. They look very early 70s 70, 71 maybe?

  • @darren2514fv
    @darren2514fv 4 года назад +1

    Most of these adverts were shown on TV in South Africa and Australia where cigarette advertising on TV was allowed but only cinemas in the UK because cigarette advertising on TV was banned in the UK in 1965 though the last one would have been allowed as it featured pipes and lighters

    • @guylaurie819
      @guylaurie819 3 года назад +1

      Nope, cigarette advertising in SA was never allowed on TV. Cinema yes.

  • @cruithneach7444
    @cruithneach7444 5 лет назад +2

    Hi Marcus, I loved those ads too, they came across far better in original condition and through a Val Guest PA but a nostalgic thirst slakes easy hey buddy. In fact I wrote to the Dunhill Company many years ago trying to find a score or Session sheet to the very last one that after 40 odd years have just found thanks to you; and the delightful guys at Dunhill sent me an old style cassette tape of what they had. I now find out through you it was Bruce Clark! Not Bruce Clark OAM Australian composer and Jazz Guitar Player do you mean?, as he passed in 2008. But did I think to ask him NUH. And I kid you not, I was rehearsing his arrangements "Polka Dots and Moonbeams and Cumquat Changes" (and is on my Music stand as I write) as this search hit and knew I had found them. Tenacity with a hint of the Gods.Uncanny how the world operates on the subjective consciousness. Do you have any of the older Dunhill fanfares that echo an almost Purcell like scoring?

      When I first started Sign writing, all the old guys Sign wrote in a suit and tie, some with Fedoras and Trilbys, with long neat aprons on. I still have one of the Aprons, and that was in Australia at Althouse & Geiger. It was all part of the cultured past. I still love a good Cashmere suit and am half way through knocking one up English Drape Vogue pattern. God knows I couldn't afford one Bespoke any other way these days at 180 bucks a metre.

    Mr. tarrant, perhaps you can help me: I remember a commercial from Dunhill where a plane passes near a castle at night (my very favorite) The ship was a Beechraft Bonanza -impossible to forget that V-tail)... well... the background music is a jazz melody... I have tried to get the name of that melody for years, without success. Canyou help me with the title, please?

    • @MeMarcInOz
      @MeMarcInOz  7 лет назад

      Hello Oscar. Thanks for your note. I have checked with my colleagues and none of us remember any of our Australian Dunhill ads in which a Beechcraft Bonanza appeared. All our ads featured the same melody (with some immprovisation) but I wouldn't charactise any as 'jazz'. It may have been a commercial that appeared elsewhere, England or South Africa, perhaps. All the best, Marcus
