I can't believe someone posted a critical comment to the effect that you're doing an injustice to these records by using noise reduction and other modern equipment to clean up their sound so they don't sound like they would have played on a 1928 record player. The test for authenticity shouldn't be the scratchy, tinny sound of a 1928 player, it should be using the record we have to come as close as possible to what the Whiteman band sounded like live. You've been doing a great job with that on all your posts, Prozoot, and I'm eternally grateful to hear these wonderful records freed from the bondage of the original playback equipment.
The late 1920's Paul Whiteman Orchestra was simply HEAVEN! Fantastic arrangements, outstanding musicianship, excellent vocalists and such wonderful material!! These transfers are simply divine!!

Miss hannah has to have one of my all time favourite Crosby vocals. The way he just blends perfectly with the band as he commences is pure perfection. Could spend my remaining days listening to Whiteman records!!!
Agreed. Oddly, one thing that I always loved about Crosby's vocal on this one is that he only gets one chorus! His vocal ends way too soon and leaves me wanting more.
Three fabulous tunes masterly interpreted by the Rhythm Boys and masterly accompanied by great PW orchestra(with great Box soloing..)A real musical picture of that period!
Facing 1.00 o'clock in the morning, it is impossible for me to leave your channel! Listening to your ABSOLUTELY FINE QUALITY RECORDS (As our Grandparents bought them newly!), gives me smiles, tears, laughter and DANCE! THANK YOU!🍀🌺💕🍾🍸🌟🍀
In the Seventies, a friend of mine introduced me to Paul White man and I instantly got hooked via of The Dick Lawrence Show. In the last days of the vinyl record I found a huge collection of Whitman's work with Bing Crosby. All of the songs you have here were pressed onto that record. This brings back memories. When everyone was playing rock in Illinois, I was listening to this music. My parents thought I was nuts!!!
I'm sure we never met but at the same time I was in Illinois in Summer Stock and listening to this music while doing musical Productions but this was always my favorite music. I I went into a record store remember those are both where you could play a record. I saw a picture of Ruth Etting on the cover of a vinyl record and took it into play it and I've been hooked ever since and that was in the 1960s early 60s and now I've got around 200 vinyl records I don't know what to do with because everything's on my phone. I didn't mean to go on and on but Illinois is one of my favorite places and one of my favorite people

It’s so hard to find a “potato head “ in decent shape. I take my hat off to you for cleaning these up! Back in the 80’s I bought thousands of 78 rpm because that was the only way to hear the music of the 20’s and 30’s. Now they just sit and I have your records nice and clean! Thank you so much!!!
Man this just simply has to be one of the best videos in the whole world of youtube, it's a kicker! I could play it a million times over and never get tired of hearing it - what a great thing they had invented sound recording to capture this amazing sound.
Going through your uploads. This episode has to be the holy grail of the jazz age. I never tire of these recordings. Your deft touch has brought new life to the music Whiteman stuffed into the record grooves so long ago. I can hear the bows sawing across the violins! Cool! The vocals are legendary.
....thanks so much, John -- I'm happy to know you are enjoying the tunes. Right now, I'm taking a little break, but will be back with new vids soon. ....Roger
No jazz musician of the 20's, including Bix, would seriously consider Whiteman the king of jazz. Some of his records contained some wonderful bits of jazz, but the boredom of playing in a band that wasn't a true jazz band played a big part in Bix' drinking himself to death.
Can someone post the lyrics in the verse after they sing "Hey Ho Come on" I can't make it out from this point on the record up to the start of the chorus.

The overblown arrangements of the Whiteman orchestra of this period had their moments, but it's understandable that these records did not sell as well as the Victors.

I heard it on Luca1993production before his channel was shut down and I have been looking for this song for years.

Some of the finest, and definitely some of my favorite Bing-Rhythm Boys-Bix-Tram Whiteman sides. Utterly glorious stuff!
Just fell over this one. Love it and it's glorious rhythms. Hadn't head it before.

In 1968 the LP "Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra: Featuring Bing Crosby" was released. I personally bought a copy circa 1980.
@@TheLordMoyne I bought it too lovve it
Even if they look bad the usually play well because they're a laminated record. Very quiet surface.
@@phredl at The Collector myself I have to agree. Laminated records play much better than they look.
Man this just simply has to be one of the best videos in the whole world of youtube, it's a kicker! I could play it a million times over and never get tired of hearing it - what a great thing they had invented sound recording to capture this amazing sound.
So much delightful ear-heaven, packed into just 14:28 minutes!
Five great selections...what a tremendous sound Whiteman had with the Columbia Viva-Tonals...
Anything Whiteman and the Rhythm Boys is right in my wheel house!!!
I LOVE The Vocal Treatment on "I`d Rather Cry Over You"!
"I'd Rather Cry Over You" hadn't heard this one before. The band was really extra in-sync on this. Quite impressive...
Get alive! BRAVO in every country all over the world! Merci beaucoup! Emmanuel
Thank you from Amsterdam for posting this wonderful music.
....Dank u voor uw vriendelijke woorden. Zo blij om te weten dat je geniet van de deuntjes.
It was an album of these '28 Whiteman recordings in the early 70's, borrowed from a tiny library in Albany, NY that made me an instant convert.
I wonder how the Orchestra would sound if he didn't leave Victor in April 1928.
He went back in 1931.
what a great vocal harmonies, I didn't know about bing Crosby singing in trio and quartet, thanks!!!
His start was in this close harmony with the other two Rhythm Boys. I think it was Paul Whiteman who gave them their professional start at this time.
You never fail to Please with these BEAUTIFUL Paul Whiteman Columbia Recordings! I LOVE ALL OF THESE!
So good to get a selection of top recordings featuring grand vocals with fine sound - really appreciate your expertise.
Famous POTATOE HEAD RECORDINGS! Merci beaucoup from Paris France
The "potato head" was Whiteman's own caricature. It also turned up in trade ads, souvenir programs, and other printed material.
Super excellent

Einfach göttlich !danke für's teilen !
Great video & Great songs!!
Me encanta!!!
Great Music. people of today have no idea.
Oh, some of us do!
parabens
Благодарю.
these sides prove Paul Whitman was the King of Jazz!
Mr Whiteman was able to pay his music men better salaries!
I hope you all have seen the restored print of the film King of jazz!
