Whenever I see or hear any old piece, all I can feel is the feeling of contentment with life. I feel so relaxed, so nostalgic, so bloody sorry that I wasn't in that time to experience that feeling. It takes me to my childhood when me n my father used to watch black n white movies just for this pure pleasure. It takes me away from the sad realities of this world, the uncontentment, greedy feeling that has replaced the beautiful world. Lovely music.
Yeah! A couple of people beat me to the post. You're right!The music was very dreamy. But life was pretty bad back then. Unless you had money and were a white male. The scientific advancements are great, but I would be dead before open heart surgery. And the government didn't have MediCare anyway.So I would be stuck for an 30,000 dollar operation.
When I used to play the piano in our local public house in England this song always took the roof off with singing, everyone loved Home In Pasadena, along with Nothing Could Be Finer, Chattanooga Choo Choo, Home Town and many other American folk songs, we loved them all, sadly they are days gone by now.
The Savoy Orpheans appeared under the pseudonym of "The Romaine Orchestra"as they were still under contract to Columbia at this time. A wonderful Harry Warren composition. Here appearing in an early and unusual Electrola recording. Thanks for sharing.
Two versions of this song were released..One with vocal for the English speaking world and one an instrumental for Europe..However this seems to be a third version as it is played different to the usual instrumental one.l suspect a different take was used
I think the vocal version may be the Savoy Havana Band - their version certainly has a vocal and is the more commonly heard version from CD releases. I have both a version by the Orpheans (and Havana Band) so must compare the records I have with this. I can't remember if the Orpheans version has a vocal.
I have a shellac record of this music , with vocal by Leslie Howard on Homochord label . I'm currently researching this and trying to find if its Leslie Howard the actor " Gone with the wind " ? Any information would be appreciated . Thanks . p.s. I have not played this . I've come across a Fred Douglas , Leslie Howard maybe one of his aliases ..
The 1920s had good music and bad liquor. Now we have good liquor and bad music.😣😥 This is the most twenties sounding of all of that eras recordings. I wish there was a modern surround sound made that sounded like a twenties version. But all the later recording arn't played right.
Anyone else from the self-playing violin?
"The Eighth Wonder Of The World"...
albspinola it really is. I would pay a lot to see it

Asad Ali Khan take an antidepressant.
I can be like that myself. Then I think about the lack of air conditioning back then and I'm suddenly ok.

I wish I have a vintage music player and play this song, this type of music all the day. My life will be pink.
Buy a record player. This record only sells for around $5 online.

Different groups recorded vocal and non-vocal versions.

Энергично
I heard this from the self-playing violin. Part of the song sounds like another song from Fallout New vegas
Racing Penguins from Mario 64 brought me here (play at 1.5x to understand what I mean)
This is not it. It's close but not it. I feel like i heard this in gaming before but i can't put my bloody finger on it.
i think i heard this in tom and jerry...
