- Jan Garber & His Orchestra - Mamie, Fox-Trot (Harry B. Smith - Jack Shilkret) with Vocal refrain, Victor 1925 (USA)
NOTE: Jan GARBER (born 1894 Indianapolis, Indiana - died 1977 in Shreveport, Louisiana) - American violinist and dance bandleader, Jan Garber started his own dance band (a quartet) in 1918 and played violin in it. He formed the Garber-Davis Orchestra in Atlanta with pianist Milton Davis from 1921-24 and after parting with Davis he formed his own band playing mostly the “hot” dance music and recording for Victor. In 1927 he moved the band to Chicago and met Canadian bandleader and saxophonist Freddie Large. He took over Large's band, playing violin as leader, and played in Chicago and the midwest. While performing at the Trianon he received national attention when the shows were broadcast live over radio. An announcer called Garber "The Idol of the Airwaves”. The 1924-1929 period of Garber’s band’s activity is considered by Jazz Age connoisseurs as his heyday. Garber was hit hard by the Great Depression, yet unlike many American dance band leaders he managed to recreate his orchestra into a big band in the 1930s and started to play mostly the “sweet” dance music, continuing to cut many successful discs for Victor. During World War II, Garber began playing swing jazz, his arranger during this time was Gray Rains and his vocalist was Liz Tilton. He returned to "sweet" music after the war, continuing to lead ensembles until 1971.
“Mamie” belongs to Garber’s “hot” recordings from his best period.
My kind of music.Encore Maestro !
Absolutely love the 20’s music! Thank you.
So glad it preserved. Just wonderful
The Jan Garber Orchestra had a strong hot jazz sound definitive of the Twenties. Just love it with the saxophones, trumpets, and so on. Nice sound recording as if it were an early electric as opposed to wax. Thanks for sharing.
Early electric is still wax: the difference is that there is microphone and amplificaton. I agree, this sounds like an electric recording.
Прекрасная музыка,шикарный видовой ряд,вы-лучшие!!
Les voici surgit de la nuit des temps ces musiques enjoué et les belles DAMES de cette époque
Quel AGREABLE intermede
Knowing Victor's best from other twenties brands, I must tell you I don't remember this Garber that features some baritone sax, my predilect instrument if I were held down to choose one. Thanks Gregor!
Super excellent with very good interesting photos
Thank you :-)
I didn't know until RUclips that Garber had such a hot orchestra in the 20's!
:-)))
Nothing like the roaring sound of the 1920's foxes. Love the images and the clips of the dancing ladies and the amusing clip from "Singing In The Rain" at 1:54.
Delightful
Jan Garber was great...I didn’t care for his WWII “swing” band too much, but loved his other output from the late ‘40s on...”The Idol of The Airlanes”...
The 1920’s must have been some interesting times.
Wat leuk het is de stijl van m'n vader
gr Lies
great stuff--thanks for sharing
Thank you :-)
Extraordinaire !!! Je suis crazy de votre musique. Et je dis : encore !!
so good!
Thanx!
Garber's band was hotter than hot during the mid to late 20s Era, but it got softened at the end, turned to a sweet music band, anyway this recording sounds way ahead of its time... Thanks for sharing
Showing their legs, Oh My Lord. Scandalous for sure.
I believe that Indianapolis is the capital of Indiana. Thanks for the great music.
Thank you for pointing out that stupid mistake I made in the info. I don't know how possibly I could have made it, probably I was thinking about something else while writing. Thanks again! :-)

Thanks for the consolation. Everything is still ahead of me :-)))
One of those very early electrics, in the vibrant mid-20s style I am fond of. The period of Jan Garber's hottest recordings. This one is a precious example! I wonder who the vocalist was? He doesn't sound familiar to me.
see SILVIA DIANA HRIHOR from RUMANIA ...( she is of hungarish origin ) singing HAI CU MINE MAI ...backwards of video is the Mary Pickford of Transilvania.....SILVIA wanna be the GRETA TUNBERG of RUMANIA...she wonderfully sings LA BATUTA VICOVENI ...and SA JUCAM PINE where she says the cattle is the first in tne fountains of La Remezeu....wonderful videos
Gezellige muziek
Beautiful! Actually this is 1925 since it is electrically recorded! The other side of Cross-Words I think.
Ofcourse, you are right. I changed the date in my info. Thank you :-)
Side B is Montmartre Rose :-))
Recorded 5/13/25
Thank you, the mistake has been corrected in my info :-))
