1929 was a great year of great songs.that was when the talkies were in full swing and musicals were at their height and every picture had a theme song.i had so many 78s and song sheets from that year.sadly,i no longer have them.
I love this video. The selection of songs is terrific. I think my favorite is Hylton. His arrangements are sublime. The music of 1929 is so upbeat. The Roaring 20s were in full strength and people had no idea of the Depression that was about smack them in the face in the next few years.
...and how little they would want upbeat happy music to help them thru that time. The British weren't above snappy tempos, but they affected Americans like a bad hangover, so our pop sound was often bland until the swing era came along.
There were exceptions, one favorite was George Olsen AHO The Girl on the little green hat, and Pink Elephants, both 1932 and there were others like Lazy Day etc
O what fantastic music, I love the 40s music, it make's me think of my wonderful mother who lived during these fab years, I can just remember the old wooden round shouldered radio we once had in Milford rd, Duffield, near Derby. Love to relive those years again, when my Mother and Father were young. My Dad had an old Austin Riley then, and he worked for the Derby Trent bus company, they were real buses then with starting handles at the front. you had to wind them round with both hands. ;-)
THANK YOU SO MUCH. When I was a baby living in London, my mom's favorite band was Jack Hylton. She used to play her 78s for me all day long so I came to love the bands.

Hi Panachord, Lovely selection. I particularly liked 'Lovable and Sweet'. Never knew the Bidgood band could swing so hard. I love those little 8" discs and in particular the Edison Bell Radio ones. They are beautifully recorded and almost always have other arrangements than the published ones.
Very nice! I like the image of the magazine at the end, I wonder if they ever imagined we would be looking at it all these years later, sixpence, for all us interested in "Modern music"
I can't get over the price of Columbia Records in 1929. 3/- was a lot of money at that time, even for premium records like HMV & Columbia. That would be somewhere in the region of "£6" at todays prices
The song is very good Because to get the bless from GOD in the Heaven. My the hope pray, this the song forever to get from GOD until the consumen alway shall to like this the song. The tips to get the bless from GOD are to pray to GOD, to doing the good words and to doing the good behavior to body self and another human. 🖒🖒
Peter, listening again to this wonderful selection, Betty Bolton has big problems keeping in tune. I had that record too and thought it was some pressing mistake, but your copy has the exact same problem. She is often more than a semitone flat. By the way I always come back to your year-by-year selections. They give such a superb overview of the 'hits' of that year. Your restorations are always superb of course, nearly always way better than any commercial re-issue.
Peter, everything you've uploaded is worth revisiting more than once. In several cases I've played them 20 times or more. Your music selection is always interesting, the information is concise and to the point and your restorations are first class. It is thanks to you, Jonathan, David and a lot of others that one of the most important periods in amusement music is still available. Out-and-out jazz can still be found on CD, but dance band music has become virtually unavailable. I've been suffering from sleepless periods for over 35 years, and when, like now, I have such a moment, I always revert to your uploads. 15 and more minutes of superb music is totally relaxing. I love uploads of super rare single sides but just sitting back and enjoying the equivalent of an LP side tops it all. Thank you very much for the enormous effort you put in making this available to us. Really much appreciated.
Peter Hendriksma It would be very sad indeed if this wonderful legacy of recorded music was to be forgotten. It is encouraging to see young collectors and enthusiasts out there enjoying those great bands of the past, and the internet has given us all the chance to make the recordings available again.
I agree with that guy says... thanks for posting such wonderful music! I have exposed a few people to British Dance Band music and everyone who has given it a listen has really enjoyed it. I learned about it from your videos... so, you have helped to keep the music alive.
All of a sudden I'm scrolling on British bands from the late 1920s. They are similar to, yet quite different from ('different to' is English humor, I think, but better than the awful American 'different than', which is ungrammatical and used commonly now) American dance bands of the period. I hope they keep showing up. Hope you guys get your grammar figured out. 🐸
Nice batch of transfers! Maybe it's an idea to make a separate atch of 8 and 9 inch records (Broadcast, Edison-Bell Radio, metropole etc) if you have them in your collection... Greetings from the Netherlands, Rolf

'Thinking of You" is gently haunting.
Very pleasing melodies well arranged
Excellent selections. Very enjoyable

Jazz seemed to fade this year and we pass into the mellow '30's the way it sound.....Great sound .........

Lovely memory :-)

Ah, thank you very much. I like those songs very much!
It is an American song written by Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown for the film "Broadway Melody".
swing with a Capital Swing....luvs it.
Very nice selection of music, as usual.
Thanks Rolf. I'm planning a selection of Harry Hudson's 8" EBRs which you may enjoy.
That Harry Bidgood was rather good, don't think I've heard a 8 inch broadcast sound so nice!
Thanks
There is a new selection of Harry Hudson Edison Bell Radios "in production" and should be ready next week for uploading.
Hi Panachord,
Lovely selection. I particularly liked 'Lovable and Sweet'. Never knew the Bidgood band could swing so hard. I love those little 8" discs and in particular the Edison Bell Radio ones. They are beautifully recorded and almost always have other arrangements than the published ones.
Extremely pleasing
parabéns seus canais são lindos

Thank you for sharing this excellent post. It is much appreciated.
Thanks: A treat.

Maybe you were born at the right time as it is getting easier to enjoy all the recordings from that era thanks to the internet.
Top quality audio
Thanks!
Was thinking the same thing, quality sound is amazing !
muito obrigado!
Very nice!

I like 1929
Delighted you love them!
Nice Music.Thank you!
👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏼🖐🏼
cool
The song is very good
Because to get the bless from GOD in the Heaven.
My the hope pray, this the song forever to get from GOD until the consumen alway shall to like this the song.
The tips to get the bless from GOD are to pray to GOD, to doing the good words and to doing the good behavior to body self and another human. 🖒🖒
The only way to God is through the Messiah, His Son, who did the work of atonement to God that we could never do.
Высший класс
Thank you!
Yes it is Sam Browne. At the beginning of the video he is credited 14 seconds in.

Thanks for uploading, Panachord. Is that Sam Browne's voice on the first track? I noticed there was no credit given to the "vocal refrain".
I didn't know that "The painted doll" was an english song or recorded in english, I just know the Commedian Harmonists version. Which one is earlier?
Delightful
