I love Vestal (and her “back up” singers)....thank you, ETL, for this God Bless America video for the troops to enjoy, along with the rest of us. ((HUGS))
Wow! When you said pip, I expected to see a tiny one. That lil owlet is almost out! Might BE out now but Didi is sitting and I can’t see.
I see Jasper brought a couple of nice rats for Didi and the new behbeh. Good daddy.
Ah, she just got up and stepped outside. Looks like the wee one has hatched completely.
Hadn’t heard of these guys before. Good stuff!!
Good evening, Janey...((HUGS))...the slowness is a problem.
Keep enjoying your time off with your family.
God Bless you good, Mac. *HUGS* Good night and rest well.
Thanks for helping honor our troops, past and present.
Thank you for your service to our country.

A stylized version of Manhattans Central Park was created on an RKO sound stage, and every note you hear in this clip from the 1937 film was written by Gershwin himself. It was Ginger who came up with the idea of a dance routine on roller skates, and Fred thought it was ridiculous. But choreographer Hermes Pan and producer Pandro Berman thought it was brilliant, and it played beautifully despite Freds misgivings.
The song is about class differences in America, and it confused moviegoers who were not American.
70’s
It’s ****ing down rain again here in Tx
Wettest July Evah!
I guess the old man decided it wasn’t humid enough yesterday!
This is early Lady Day with a restrained Dixieland backing that doesnt get in the way of her voice. Thats a great sax solo in the middle.
Billie rethought the song twenty years later with some of the most noted jazz sideman in the game. Just look at the names who were present at this L.A. recording session!

Ella and Satchmo went into the studio in 1957 for this duet. Louis vocal style is unique and incredibly inelegant, but hes wonderful in this recording. Ella is wonderful as usual.
This is Ella from 1959 backed by Nelson Riddle, a Big Band approach.
