The Ambrose band returns with the classic "Day By Day", another superb recording from their "HMV" period....
One of the greatest and most beloved London orchestras of the late 1920s through the 1940s was without doubt (Bert) Ambrose's band whose 78rpms are still found in great quantity in Belgium today . Born in the east of London in 1896, Ambrose started his career in the USA before returning to London in 1922 when he was asked to play at the Embassy Club... His band soon became known for its elegant sound and superb arrangements. Vocalists with the band included Sam Browne, Kitty Carlisle, Evelyn Dall and most famously Vera Lynn.... He played not only at the Embassy Club but also at the May Fair Hotel (and seemed to alternate between these two venues) and recorded many sides for Brunswick, HMV and Decca... He retired from performing in 1940 but continued to make recordings.... Later on he decided to perform again but he suffered considerably from the demise of the big band era. He died in 1971.

Day by day my dreams are coming true, day by day, each time I listen to you! Love, love, love Sam Browne.
Super excellent
Beautiful dance band, recording, arrangement, singing, playing, atmosphere....
Thank you very much for posting!
Thank you for uploading this great song from the great era that was 1930s music, leotaurus1975. We juts don't have the equivalents today where music epitomised the era and was such a fundamental part of the time period.
Eine herrliche Platte. Vielen Dank.
how beautiful tune it is !
Very fine - superb indeed.
Just lovely.
Merveilleuse musique et vidéo superbe ! Merci !
Ein schöner Titel. Danke für den Upload!
Hermoso...!!🌷
@formiggini Ja, die Eleganz dieses Orchesters ist wirklich herrlich... Diese HMV-Platten sowie die Decca M-Series Platten gehören zu den gesuchtesten Ambrose-Schellacks.... Leider habe ich nur einige dieser Platten....
Thanks for this transfer-it is one of the clearest I have ever heard from this vintage of HMVs-was it taken from an Electrola-that might explain it.
Nice song and clip, even if that fashion looks 1940's to me, not 1930's.
Activate the HD feature where and how ?
@formiggini Das stimmt, dies Platte hat diesen Mangel auch, sei es im begrenzten Masse.... Ich habe zB. Marek Weber Platten auf HMV und Electrola... Der qualitative Unterschied ist erstaunlich ! Pressungen aus Singapore, Indien und Australien sind angeblich viel besser als die englischen....
Ambrose had a gambling lean and once said on Desert Island Discs that he could loose thousands on a bet and not be bothered, but would be deeply distraught if his band played badly.
What?
