    Al Bowlly is the GOAT of his era! His song "Heartaches" is probably my favorite song of the early 1930s!

    I'm really dissapointed not everyone appreciates this version of the song, Al Bowlly and Les Allen were such a great duo and they should get the recognition they deserve.
    RIP Al Bowlly
    RIP Les Allen

      Believe me, Tiny Tim has always been considered "creepy". He played up the strangeness a lot. I suggest looking up his song "The Other Side" and the spoken word piece "The Viper" to see what I mean.

    Currently in the middle of listening to Everywhere at the End of Time for the first time, so this is definitely a big change in tone from that, in a good way. I like listening to music from this era. He may be long gone, but Bowlly can still invoke a wide range of emotions in us. The Caretaker (James Leyland Kirby) himself has said that had Bowlly not died in the war, he may have become bigger than Bing Crosby. As it is, it's sad to think that he died so relatively young in the Blitz, and was buried in a mass grave with other bombing victims too. I'm glad that even nearly a century on, he still resonates with audiences.

    Pay attention to the different forms of the main melody from the vocalists, fiddle, saxophone, band. Perfectly encapsulates late 1920s style.
    0:10 muted Trumpets
    0:20 violin/fiddle in a harmonized version
    0:30 saxophones play the minor run aka pillar 2
    0:41 back to fiddle
    0:52 back to vocalists
    Saxophones usually play a mood piece, since they were known for their ghostly timbre and it's a truly beautiful thing. There's a gorgeous piece from 1915 that knocked my socks off with the solo.
