Good one! Like the organ.

🌹sweet😊

Didn’t know he covered this, I’d only heard the L&J version.

2 of the greatest nights of my life were when I went to hear Turk @ Earthquake McGoons in 1975

Judging from the hundreds of postcards on the Delcampe auction site, Art Deco Le Touquet with its posh villa's and sometimes monumental hotels (Royal Picardy hotel !) must have been quite something in the 1930's. I didn't know Bowlly made a song about it - he made so many recordings - but unfortunately his tribute to that playground for the jet set is not one of his best, let's remain fair....

My favorite female singer!

Introduced by Keith Eadie on radio station 2GB

I'm not sure Jolie cut 'sides' for Edison in the 1910 session!

Its fun to be Jewish ❤❤❤❤

A masterclass in phrasing:- superb vocal.

"Does that mean you're not coming?" Hilarious!

I've been a fan since I was seven years old, when my parents brought home his first record, 64 years ago.

Still a brilliant song after all these years! It's no suprise that Nick Cave did a cover version of it, the dark romaniticism of the lyrics and the singer's slightly ominous voice suit Nick Cave.

I knew that this song was originally Australian, but I had no idea until now that it was THIS Australian

ALSO A HUGE HIT FOR ARTIE SHAW WITH HELEN FOREST VOCAL !

'WRITTEN BY IRVING BERLIN

FOR OVER TWO DECADES HILTON LED BRITAIN'S MOST POPULAR BAND !

Bob is the best

AI: he was always ahead of his time!

Loved him since I was 9, 73 now.

It appears the prime minister has drowned prime minister holt went missing

I always thought he was standing in a trash can on the cover of the record when i was a kid in the 80,s

Love, forever!❤ RIP

Oh, that last jingle really got me..

This is a New Song To me

I swear to god I remember the song was called "You're pretty as a butterfly"

❤😍❤

My sister found this through a google search. The host of the show is our father Lawrence Costin

2024 baby ❤

Written by Carl Stuart Hamblen in 1954, and originally recorded by his family as the "Cowboy Church Sunday School." His wife and teenaged or young adult daughters sang on the original recording. It was recorded at the 33 1/3 RPM speed, and then sped up to 45 RPM to make it sound like kids' voices. Ricky and Rebecca Page (a mother and daughter) were the singers on the Flintstones' version.

This is perfectly lovely 🥰❤🎩🎙️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I've heard this before

Great Artist And Song !!!

My grandmother was a friend of Nellie Lamport who played Hilda.

We miss you Bing.

That Playbill is for the wrong musical. That Parade is about Leo Frank.

Perhaps Al's first contribution to a record

None better.

So basically….Al and Bing plan to kill a man had killed the man and got away with it….NICE😊👍🏻

No one can sing this loverly/sad number like Betty

Thank you so much. I have been searching for this version of Wild Daffodil since 1970. It was one of my father's favourite songs and he had recorded it off the radio in 1968 but there was no announcement of the artist and the sound quality was very poor (he just held a microphone up to an old crackly radio). I kept looking for it every few years but never found out the artist's name. At some point I picked up a version by Ron Grainer (the original version) but it was not the one I was after. Finally I stumbled across this today. Now I can play it the next time I visit his grave.

❤ ​⁠@poeonthego I grew up being sung these songs as a child about Aussie spiders not the snakes 😜 ‼️‼️‼️🙌🙌🙌

EVER SINCE I WAS ABOUT 5 OR 6, IN THE MID 1940'S. MY FAMILY, WHO LOVED CHICKS RECORD OF''BEGIN THE BEGUINE' PLAYED IT CONSTANTLY, I RECOGNISED THE RECORD BY IT'S RED & GOLD LABEL, AND LEARNED HOW TO PLAY IT TOO. MUCH LATER, I BOUGHT AND READ CHICKS BIOGRAPHY, AND HIS EARLY AND VERY SAD DEATH , ECHOING HIS SONGSTER RIVAL, AL BOWLLY'S. AL'S DEATH EARLY IN THE WAR, AND CHICKS MUCH LATER. BOTH WERE AVOIDABLE, IF FATE HADN'T BEEN SO CRUEL. AL'S BECAUSE HE TOOK THE LAST NIGHT TRAIN HOME TO LONDON, INSTEAD OF HIS FRIENDS OFFER TO STAY OVER THAT NIGHT, AND WAS KILLED DURING A BOMBING RAID. AND CHICKS MISJUDGEMENT WHEN A V1 JET PLANE, FELL TO EARTH MUCH CLOSER THAN EXPECTED. I THANK YOU FOR THESE WONDERFULLY RESTORED RECORDINGS , WHICH WERE PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN TO ME. I HAVE TO BE HONEST, AND SAY THAT ALMOST ALL OF THE SONGS WERE NOT EXACTLY REMARKABLE. YOU CAN BE THE GREATEST SINGER, AND INTERPRETER OF A SONG, BUT IF IT' DOESNT MAKE YOU LONG TO HEAR IT AGAIN, THE SINGER CAN SUFFER. AL BOWLLY'S REPERTOIRE WAS LARGER AND CONTAINED FAR MORE SMASH HITS, WHICH ARE STILL PLAYED AROUND THE WORLD TODAY. BUT, PURELY IN MY OPINION, CHICK HENDESON WAS THE BETTER SINGER, BUT AL THE BETTER INTERPRETER OF HIS, SONGS., BEING ABLE TO SING A SONG WRITTEN BY THE GREATEST OF HIS DAY, COLE PORTER, IS THE ROUTE TO GO, WHENEVER POSSIBLE. I READ THAT ,OF MANY US RECODINGS OF HIS SONG, CHICKS WAS HIS FAVOURITE.

WONDERFUL QUALITY RECORDINGS, NO DOUBT DUE TO MODERN FILTERING TECHNOLOGY.

MOST MALE SINGER'S OF THIS ERA, WERE OFTEN HARD TO DISCERN FROM FEMALE SINGER'S. I DON'T HAVE A ANSWER FOR THAT, BUT I CAN UNDERSTAND HOW THE GIRS WOULD BE ATTRACTED TO CHICKS BARATONE VOICE, WHICH WAS PROBABLY UNIQUE.

Hopefully you'll get more comments ~ after mine here will "seed the tip jar"/algorithm. Thank you for posting this great recording & all the archival work re: this artist.

The best joke not to be found anywhere on this recording : Broken Arms Hotel What you say you got a leak in your bathtub? Well go ahead ,you paid for the room.

It's a great song. I miss being in Australia. 🇦🇺 🎉😊

thanks for sharing this. i just looked it up and it appears that it has not been covered by any other artist. Mack Gordon and the two Harrys: in this case, Revel, and Warren sure could turn out great songs.
