Oh yeah!! Can't adequately express my JOY at seeing and listening to these musicians. This 65 year old didn't grow up with this music but I am sure glad that it is featured here on UA-cam. WONDERFULLY entertaining. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! 💕🎶🙂
Tight - this would've been a major player band in the day! Love the song -- two ticks to the guy on banjo next to the clarinets with the active eyebrows, throwing focus where its needed.
Congrats on your masterful ability to play this brilliant transcription of a Coon-Sanders Orch. hit record from 1929! Your orchestra sounds just like them! What an achievement it is to have played the famous Savoy Hotel where the Savoy Orpheons did so many years ago! I'm sure Cedric Gibbons would be so delighted to have heard your brilliant retro orchestra play there, recalling his heyday! Who is the talented fellow who transcribed this arrangement off the record? He did a brilliant job of it and deserves praise. 😊
That is me. I've done over 100 transcriptions. Maybe fifty Coon-Sanders and all the Tiny Parham. Thousands of hours of work over 20 or so years. Thanx for the shout out.
This worked well. I had an exceptional stock of same to work from. Even so, it was quite a bit of fussing.....ua-cam.com/video/FvD0uJEDbLA/v-deo.htmlsi=2VYD5wLmIF4eIwAK
@@theoldlefthander Well sir, I think you are awesome! Transcribing ain't easy! Just for fun, go And hear Withered Roses at roybo1930. I think it's off label Coon Sanders! This time they try to disguise their sound, but After the vocal, the style comes through! They use Another physeudonym like " the Manhattan merrymakers" or something like that. It's a sweet 1928 bootleg side, on Broadway label? You'd never guess it's by Coon Sanders till after the vocal. !!! Say, did you also transcribe 2reelers tune, Skinner's Sock? Another great Coon Sanders transcription! Congrats again and thankyou for your masterful work!
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR AWESOME ORCHESTRA PLAY, "I Was Only Teasing You"!!! And a GREAT Fox Trot version of "When The White Lilac`s Bloom Again" Songs used in the 1931 Movie "Night Nurse" Staring Barbra Stanwick, Jone Blondell, Ben Lion, Clark Gable!!
INCRÍVEL! FANTÁSTICO! EXTRAORDINÁRIO!!! Esse jovem maestro band leader britânico em plena década de 20 do Século 21, conseguir a incrível façanha de através da sua Orquestra, reunir toda a musicalidade de quase cem anos atrás de Louis Armstrong e os Hot Five, Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Boc Beiderbecke & Paul Whiteman, Fletcher Herdeson, os Irmãos Dorsey, Bing Crosby e Al Bowlly. Além das Orquestras Inglesas dos Irmãos Starita que entre 1927 e 1929 se apresentavam no The Piccadilly Hotel de Londres!!! ESSE RAPAZ E SUA MARAVILHOSA BIG BAND SÃO A *REENCARNAÇÃO ABSOLUTA DE TODA ESSA ÉPOCA DE OURO DO JAZZ NASCENTE EM TERRAS DO "TIO SAM"!!! Grande abraço aqui do amigo aficcionado do Jazz, no Rio de Janeiro/Brasil.

This is what music is supposed to be like. Fun!
1920`s sound!!!! Great!!!!!!!!!!!!
What kind of miscreants would not like this!!?? Even my 8&11 year old Grandchildren sing along with this and the others I have found on you tube!
Absolutely amazing...it´s like being back in 1929 ;)
Wonderful band and sparkling arrangements. One of the best of the best these days...
Great music and superb arrangement..!!Congratulations to Alex Mendham and his musicians...One of the best jazz music orchestras of all the world..
I just found you today. I have a lot of joyful listening ahead of me. Thank you all in the band in advance.
God this is so cool & the music fits in with the times we're living in. Thanks for uploading!
Spectacular. At the top of my bucket list is to see the orchestra LIVE!
SAME
Super! Kommt mal nach Deutschland!
Timeless!
amazing, fantastic! at first, I really thought it was a remasterization of an ancient film...
Tight - this would've been a major player band in the day! Love the song -- two ticks to the guy on banjo next to the clarinets with the active eyebrows, throwing focus where its needed.
Soooo much banjo. Back in the day it was just support, now it defines the style and tells the young folks how to dance.
Yes, a real Great Big Date!
I love this! Gretings from Czech republic, this music is immortal!
THIS IS SUPER AWESOME!!!
Oh man! This song has made a bad day so great!
Awesome ! The opening part of the music reminded me a little bit of Mama's Family .. loved it ♥️❤️
fantastic,, i love this so much...........thanks
They are excellent. Wow.
Absolutely fabulous Alex. Well done indeed and a real pleasure to listen and watch your band with plenty "pep and pop"...in the nicest fashion.
This is the band they should have hired for DOWNTON ABBEY!.
Great Performance! Great Production! Best video, yet!
Wonderful! Love everything about your band Alex, thanks for sharing this excellent film
Wonderful. Great video editing also.
It's great to hear a song like this without having to mentally eliminate the noise from a worn shellac record.
oh but you should listen to a pristine 78 how good they can sound
@@ghsgtnayhmd4792 I have done that, and yes, they can be quite impressive.
The point is that Most of them I've bought have Not been pristine.
@@spacemissing I wasn't arguing with you I just stated that, sorry for the confusion
Wish they would make a dvd
Alex you have to tour the US!
Just splendid!
Lovely, Alex!
We love it! x
bring my Duesenberg and drive me to the nightclub where the band plays
good show!joe overby atlanta . ga
Excellent Stuff Alex =) greetings from Italy!

Beautiful! Congratulatiions!
"d love to hear you doing some Henderson type Hot Scorching jazz sometime.

ESTO SI QUE ES MUSICA Y NO LO DE AHORA
sounds a bit like Jack Payne's smaller BBC orchestra from the late 20's. Great stuff.
Sgreat old fashioned video! Just add a bit of noise and you can say "shellac, Mr. Brown, let go on 78 RPM"🙂👍👍👍 Greetings from Poland:)
Fantastic!
But where are all the microphones? Or is this really playback all the way? Very skilled in that case.
Oh yes... please take me back... I'll throw away my phone, the internet, the 21st century's distractions. I just want to swing the night away!
2:27 🤣
drummer's face at playing is a separate show , hahaha...
👏👏👏👍👍👍

I think they were syncing ..the drumming being out a few times.
Still trying to spot the "phantom banjo"!
And where are the beautiful, singing girls! Why are they sitting in the background!
Hot Men Damn Wow
These guys are the cats meow
The bee's knees!
The gnats elbows!
leave your tommy guns at the door
