- I simply used an equalizer to increase the bass level and make the sound louder. It makes a noticeable difference in my opinion, and makes it more enjoyable to listen to.

Tex always had a great vibrato!
No beards or ball caps so refreshing! Actually clean cut in their appearance! Our present culture could learn much from this era!
Another under-rated musician of our era.
Tex was of great character both on and off stage. He was a kind and caring gentleman.
I never had the opportunity to know Tex personally, but everyone I've talked to has said exactly the same thing. He was definitely a "WYSIWYG" (what you see is what you get) kind of guy. RIP, Tex.
I'll watch anything with Tex in it, never heard of in the UK. Sad. What a performer you lucky US citizens.
True, but he got there as the result of Maj. Miller's tragic loss.
Miller had promised to set Tex up with his own band after the war - one wonders how it would have turned out.
tex beneke was top shelf all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Music and singing fantastic, and they are dressed to impress, those suits ! With tidy hair, shirts and ties very classy.
Tex had the most beautiful sound on ballads. A great musician
Never played a bad note
Tex Beneke is good he deserves more respect.
When it comes to music, I was born to late
William Linington Me, too.
True 😩
I was born even later, into the trashy modern world.
Well thanks to old movies and videos we get to see all these great musicians!
P.S. This is from the 1948 MGM short subject, "Musical Merry-Go-Round" with Tex & band, disc jockey Martin Block & The Moonlight Serenaders vocal group.
Wow! What a find. Thanks for postingthis🐻🧡
Man he's smooth
I love anything by Tex!
The great Dr. Paul Tanner leading the trombone section, just like he did with the Glenn's civilian band!
Actually Jimmy Priddy (of the Civilian & AAF Band) is playing Lead Bone by where he is sitting in the section.
@@garyletts2008 Thanks for the correction! Every time I think I've got the history of the band nailed down, I find I need a better hammer 😄
@@Poisson4147 You're doing good!
@@garyletts2008 Indeed, Priddy was Miller's lead trombone in the AAF.
Just love this❤ Thanks!!
Never heard this song before so this is great.
💜💜😂Yeaah that's exactly what I said ❤️❤️❤️
Big improvement. Thanks, Bob. Keep fiddling with those faders.
Good job! Sounds wonderful!
Great job, buddy!!!
❤
Pete Candoli and Conrad Gozzo in the middle of the trumpet section.

@@jrgreiner Yes, second from right.
@@shrinkprof Thank you!
Thank you for posting!!
love this!
What is the year of this clip? I'm wondering if that's my Dad at the piano.
Barbara Wagner
I think it's from 1948. That would be very cool if it were your dad!
This is fun. Not to be a know-it-all, but this is from an MGM musical short subject - it's not a Soundie . Soundies were single filmed musical numbers, very low-budget, to be played on video jukeboxes known as Panoram machines. You would never see a set or production values as lavish as this in a Soundie. Thanks for posting.
Tex never looked directly at the camera!
Not a television star, for sure.
Good catch lol so talented yet so nervous
I think Tex was camera-shy!
@@bobboscarato1313 Reportedly he was never fully comfortable in his role as director of the postwar Miller band. During the war Glenn had written to Tex that when they got together again 😢😢 he'd give him a couple of years of leadership mentoring, and then set Tex up with a band of his own.
Tex was the front-man for the postwar band but in reality had very little independence; he was an employee of the Miller Estate like all of the other musicians. Tex wanted to break out of Glenn's shadow but the suits at RCA had other ideas. In one much-later interview Tex said he couldn't even choose which songs they'd record - it was all handed down from the band's management.
So it's quite possible that discomfort shows through here.
Is this transcribed anywhere ?
Peter Farrar:- Tex Beneke is a multi talented musician & an engaging character. However, he decimated the romantic ballad "Somebody Loves Me," with his terrible voice. Somebody may love you Tex, but i dont love your terrible singing. Golden words with a hint of honest criticism, by Peter E. Farrar.
