GEEEZE I LOVE THIS RECORD!!! The Bass slaps in this is Wild! HOT Record indeed!
Brilliant! Encore si vous.plait
Good song thsnks
Awesome surprise. The 🎺 sounds like Bobby Hackett. Thanks! 🎻🎷🪕
A marvellous number! Cole Porter is, of course, always Cole Porter! But I have never heard of Tommy Bohn and his orchestra. And a very good transcription, too!
I've always loved this number. The lyrics (the Bohn band recorded a vocal version the same day as this instrumental take), have Porter's trademark sophistication, despite the rather succinct title. On the other hand, the music has charm without Cole's typical complexity. Who could resist those reeds and that snappin' bass?
You said I've always loved this number . My mother used to refer to records as number also. What is the origin of that phrase. I'm curious
Interesting. Was Cole Porter the creator of this marvellous piece of 30s jazz. Was it from a Broadway show for instance?
Thank you for your descriptive comparison remarks.
I always look for them to search and listen to the other renditions of songs that you mention.
@@meandmymonkey5137 I have no idea of the etymological origins of the word _number_ in this particular sense. I just like the sound of it, as it was commonly used in the '30s, and I get sick of using just plain old _song_ . I like your YT handle -- I'm assuming it has _White Album_ origins.
@@petertaylor3600 Indeed he was. It comes from the Broadway show, _Fifty Million Frenchmen_ , which included one of Cole's most famous compositions, "You Do Something to Me."
Bohn's recording of Amos And Andy has the same booming slap bass.
There are several recordings of big-name bands playing this same chart. Same is true for some other tunes such as "Painting the Clouds With Sunshine". Was there a publisher's stipulation that they had to play the stock , or was everyone just in a hurry to get to it if the song was a big hit?
I was singing and didn't even know the words.
Me, too. Things like Be-dah-dah-dah....be-dah-dah-de-dum-dum...who cares?.Nobody here to lock me up. So I sing what I sing.
Doctored stock arrangement.
Still sounds good, tho. I care not how doctored it gets.
