Auf Wiedersehen, Leb Wohl (goodbye, good luck)--Luigi Bernauer with the Parlophone Dance Orchestra (1932)

See #2

[Fiji Hill]

As Time Goes By--Rudee Vallee & His Connecticut Yankees (1931)

This tune carries a conservative message--despite the rapid advances in science and engineering that are turning the 1930s into a high-tech era, human nature doesn't change.

****Liberty Call****

[Fiji Hill]

A whole bunch of male crooners present President Richard Nixon's favorite song.

Happy Days Are Here Again--Ben Selvin & His Orchestra; vocal by the Crooners (1930)

[Fiji Hill]

This tune often appears on my personal Top 10 chart.

Blue Is the Night--Nat Shilkret & the Victor Orchestra; vocal by James Melton (1930)

Johnny Hartman and John Coltrane in the classic version of “Lush Life”:

Harry Connick Jr. - Just the Way You Are

[Fiji Hill]

Auch du wirst mich einmal betrügen (you, too, will betray me some day)--Ilya Livshakoff & His Orchestra; vocal by Leo Monosson (1930)

Leo Monosson, a Jew, had to flee to the US when Hitler came to power. European-style crooning, his specialty, was not popular in the US, but he found success selling postage stamps.
