Great song, great shape, I live in a 1927 house. Will play the song for my guests, 90 years, what's that. I still have all my family's stuff from that time, great stuff. Enjoy the songs!!
¡¡Well done!! I'm from Montevideo, Uruguay, my place is from 1908, and I also play jazz jazz and jazz, especially 20's and 30's. ¡It's classic not for nothing!
With those skinny clown suits and light brown shoes men wear now, I'd take this, or my favorite, gray double-breasted 3-piece Pinstripe! Oxford shoes, thank you, and I'm gone!!

Where every lulu bell goes, in her swell clothes, rubbing elbows, down where fashion sits, puttin on the Ritz! ……they don’t write lyrics like that no mo! Love it!
Irving Berlin rewrote the lyrics in the 1950's, changing it from a song about joyous poor blacks to one about snooty rich white people. Lulubelle was slang for a black maid, so that didn't make the cut.
You are very observant, Mr. Barkley. This is almost unbelievable. But consider, sound recording was getting pretty good by the twenties. We are just used to dealing with old copies, not the originals. At this time amplification was just coming in, crudely, for guitars. Top notch song, anyway!
YES ! THEY'RE USING AN EXCELLENT ' DE-POPPER ' TO REMOVE THE SURFACE NOISE , BUT UNFORTUNATELY THEY'RE LOSING SOME OF THE CRISP CLEAN ' HIGHS ' DURING THE PROCESS .

Wow! Older musicians and my parents often spoke of of Phil Spitalny, but this is the first time I have had the pleasure of hearing his band! Thanks so much!
This was like the dubstep or trap music of it's day, conservative parents "oh that jazz these kids listen to I can't stand it" but it still holds up so well even now! I had a long talk and listen to a lot of this stuff with my 94 year old grandma and she actually LOVES dubstep and trap and especially electro-swing (grandma is a HUGE Caravan Palace and Parov Stelar fan now!) and I LOVE old jazz like this it's just awesome.
Thanks for this--I LOVE this old music!!! My beloved parents danced to these songs, & my dad played drums in several big bands. They would play these records on an elderly, sad-looking, WAY-past-prime Victrola, & I liked it ok--but I never really "got it" until my early 60s. NOW I can't stop playing, replaying, re-replaying, etc. these wonderful songs... I'm sure my folks are smiling down, glad I FINALLY RECOGNIZED the joy & the brilliance of them.

I was born in the mid-1900's - 1950. But this music is from the earlier decades of the 20th century...circa 1925 -1930..so maybe your great grandparents!
In the 1960's I studied violin with the brother of Phil....Maurice Spitalny, at the University of Miami. Phil showed up at one of our group recitals so I got to meet him. I didn't know anything about him until later, to my eternal regret.
Dennis, don't listen to LEGO he doesn't care, but WE do and, are glad that YOU do! Back in the day it was expressed lyrically that this music was "modernistic" and, that you had to BE that in the Twenties way! Honest. I think you are getting there because of your listening!
Your music (and the graphics you provide) would provide a lift at the best of times -- and they're even more welcome now, during shelter-in-place. Thank you -- and, wishing you all the best.
Just subbed to your channel. All these great old songs have always seemed familiar to me since childhood. Strange but I love all these old songs. Thank you.
That tune reminds me of a joke. It goes something like this... Recently I read that V. Putin was heard lamenting the loss of his and his associates personal wealth. He was recalling better times at the beach on the French Riveria and placing Bond villian-style big bets in the casinos. I guess in his mind he was still Putin on the Ritz.
1930: recorded with Berlin's original lyrics, which were none too kind to the hoi polloi. He later re-wrote them, and the tune has been covered hundreds of times since. Good audio restoration. Harmony was, for many years, the second label to Columbia Records.

RUclips is the repository and dispenser of the great music of the 1920's and 1930's!
and even further back records started out in around 1896 and there's a bit of stuff from 1900 as well.
Absolutely. makes my computer worthwhile.
I almost passed fifty years without listen this excellent charleston.
In before they all got deleted by the offended socialists.
You can find music from the 1920s and 30s right here on channels like 78musicprof he has a great collection of old records like this one.

In later years he was noted for his “All Girl Orchestra”.
@@CPorter Great story. His band featured his wife, "Evelyn and Her Magic Violin".
Great stuff ! I was born in 1936, so I'm just a kid for some folks ! Hey, this is cool !
I guess I can save my comment about whipper snappers.
This reminds me of old vintage Mickey Mouse & Betty Boop cartoons.🐭🐀👢👄 Luv it!💃💃👯👯
