Great band but just a little bit too fast

Excellent..!!!

At 1:36 that looks like a VERY young Dr. Birkby on perc?? 😂

Is that a young Bob Gill on guitar? And the trumpet solo is not Dale Gibson...he's one to the left of the soloist. I was in love with Wendy Picton and the girl tuba player, when I played with The New Squadronaires many years ago! Haha!

Great memories

Yeah, great, and thanks

Arranged by my Dad Jerry Gray for Artie Shaw in 1938

How the sax sound has changed over the decades

Now this is foot tapping music!

Nice

'S wonderful!!

Worked as a DJ at a Pontin's holiday camp in 1972, Harry Bence Orchestra were the resident band. Not a 'big band' like this clip but they were very proficient. At that time Harry's band did a residency on Cunard Caribbean cruises in the Winter. Some of the band members told me stories of previous residencies when the Count Basie Orchestra was on board the vessel for a short while. Count Basie himself got up and sat in with Harry's band on occasion. No higher accolade!

Bei ricordi di gioventù 😂

Gran banda, gran música.gram época. Y sigue la alegría !

A grabacion esta muy rapida es mas lento

Love it to heaven.❤❤❤❤

Primera vez que escuche begin to beguine , fue en Hong Kong, en 1948 + - en un radio transistor.🎉❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉❤🎉🎉😅😅😅😅😅😅🎉❤😅😅😅

Back in the day tempos were slower and people danced to the songs - and they knew how to dance. There has been a lot of water under the bridge and after many decades of disco, house music and speed heavy metal - audiences seem to have got used to things being a lot faster… modern audiences tend to sit and listen, these aren’t really dance bands any more. No reason why they couldn’t be, with the right audience in the right venue - but sadly their seems to be little demand for it 🥲

Wonderful! I liked big band music during late 1970s, as a teen.

Fantásticos.. saludos españoles 😅❤

My mum’s favourite tune.

Lovely band & played strictly as written -- really great . Makes me want to get up & dance like I used to in the 1950's

Not bad…..eh..so so

What a great job you do Harry Bence. You and your orchestra sound exactly like the top bands of that great era. I enjoy listening to you and your guys playing all day. God bless. JP

Undancable??? Never heard of a quickstep?

The Aeroplane is a British WW11 Avro Lancaster.

Amo este tipo de musica.Esta pieza en especial me recuerda a dos hnos ya fallecidos,les encataba.Gracias porque nos hace tenerlos presentes siempre.😊

When ever I hear music like this I always think about my father-in-law because he was in the US Navy at the end of WW2

There are many renditions on UA-cam, including Shaw’s. Pick any one you like. I do think Shaw’s is the best one, though.

I remember this from when I was about 6 years old or a little later about 1947 or 48

Very well played.

Nice sound Freddy, pity your dad is no longer here. Thanks for sharing😃😎 Lee B

Undanceable yes, "but not for dancing" but it swings just great, since Harry knew Artie, I don't think he would have minded a bit
