Must retire for the evening -

For Every Morn' Brings Forth A Noble Chance,
And Every Chance Demands A Noble Knight!

already mounts the parapet.

#12 – The Andrews Sisters: “Shoo Shoo Baby”

They don’t make ‘em like this anymore. The girls consisted of three sisters: contralto LaVerne (1911-67), soprano Maxine (1916-95) and mezzo-soprano Patty (1918-2013). Throughout their long career, the sisters sold well over 75 million records. Their harmonies and songs are still influential today, and have been covered by almost everybody.

They started their career as imitators of an earlier successful singing group, the Boswell Sisters. After singing with various dance bands, they first came to national attention with their recordings and radio broadcasts in 1937, most notably via their major hit, “Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen”, originally a Yiddish tune, the lyrics of which Sammy Cahn had translated to English and which the girls harmonized to perfection. They followed this success with a string of best-selling records over the next two years and they became a household name by the 1940’s.

During World War II, they entertained the Allied forces extensively in America, Africa and Italy, visiting military bases, war zones, hospitals and munitions factories. They helped Bette Davis and John Garfield found California's famous Hollywood Canteen, a welcome retreat for servicemen where the trio often performed, volunteering their personal time to sing and dance for the military personnel. While touring, they often treated three random servicemen to dinner when they were dining out. They were America’s sweethearts.

Can you imagine the Hollyweird crew today selling anything that would have to do with a war effort?

I didn’t think so. Me either!

#11 – Bing Crosby: “San Fernando Valley”

It’s hard to believe, but in his early days during the Twenties and the jazz era, Harry Crosby (1903-77) was a hard drinker, a brawler and a real bad-ass. Elvis had nothing on him. Success softened him, and by 1931 he was the king of recording and radio.

He was a major innovator, inventing the laugh track and investing in the first reel-to-reel tape recorder, which changed the whole world of recording.

His closest friendship was with Bob Hope. Both men were born in the same year, and they golfed together for high stakes. My cousin-by-marriage, who wrote for Hope, was invited to play golf with them for “ten a hole”. He thought they meant ten dollars a hole, and when he found out that they were playing for ten thousand dollars a hole, he almost fainted. They let him off easily that time, but he never golfed with them again.

When Crosby died of a massive heart attack on a golf course in Spain, Hope was shattered. It was a case of mortality knocking at his door, although Hope would live for another 26 years. The Los Angeles Times wanted Hope to contribute a column on Bing’s death, and my cousin had to write it because Hope couldn’t bring himself to do it.

This song comes from the peak of Crosby’s form. I should note that the San Fernando Valley today is nothing like it was in 1944.
