My old dad was always whistling - i never saw that man sad every day he was smiling no matter what life threw at us. As soon as I learnt to whistle i was whistling this - 65 later im still doing do for Dad. Wherever you are I know you are smiling we all miss you.
Speaking as someone who had The Peanut Vendor (El Manisero) printed on my bone marrow from infancy on in my music-filled home and who was propelled into decades and decades of dancing mambo, salsa, samba, playing bongos, congas, maracas, campana and so on, and who has dozens of recordings of it and two sets of band music for it hanging on my walls . . . I'd say this video is BEYOND EXCELLENT!!!! It takes me back to the early 50's as a toddler seeing Latin big bands on tv for the first time.
I remember hearing a version of this song being played by Phil Harris and his orchestra on an episode of the Jack Benny Program. I didn't know the name of it until I was watching an episode of You Bet Your Life with Groucho Marx, and the contestants had to name the song. Finally, in 2021, I know the name! 🥜 Vendor! 👍
Wow what a Great Version of This Song....Thay Are Rocking....I Remember this From my Parents.... Could Not Ever Find This!!!!.... Sounds Great Too!!!....Good Job!!!...Latin Music Forever!!!
100 years from now this will be playing in Space or even Mars!!!...This Will Stand The Test Of Time!!!...it is 90 years old and it still ROCKS!!!!...Good Job Guys!!!!

@@jamiesworldstarmusic6136 It was written by Cuban composer Moises Simon. The first person to sing the song using Simon's Spanish lyrics was Cuban songstress Rita Montaner. I suppose Roy Fox was the first person to perform the song in English. Back in the 1930s a lot of Cuban music was played in the US. Another Cuban song that became popular in the US after the lyrics were translated into English was "Marta, Rambling Rose of the Wildwoods." ua-cam.com/video/tTSRwELZu6k/v-deo.html
If this is 1931, then it isn't the first. El Manisero dates to 1927, under the title Peanut Vender [sic] to 1930 and Don Azpiazú. Perhaps it's the first version in English, but that is irrelevant for the riddim.
@@jamiesworldstarmusic6136 Sorry, just pulling yer' leg, Vendor/vender, sendor/sender. Roy Fox was a great British pre war dance band & Al Bowlly the singer was a huge name, but he was killed in an air raid on London. Look out for Ambrose & his orchestra too. The penguin & cotton picker's congregation are good tracks. Great job with the madness synching by the way, well done.
@@Matt78collectorhi Matt yes 'tis I, Thankyou for defending my work, this channel is just for fun but my Al Bowlly channel is my real work and every video inspired by the music ♥️
Some fun! 😊

So many words in English end OR ... including Visitor and Vendor. Still, a great rendition of this uplifting song.

This sounds like Jamaican mento music .Lots of Jamaicans we’re in Cuba in the early 1900.
It's Cuban Son..this version sounds more Brazilian.
great for 1931
Dude! Top job on the edit, banging!
Appreciate it!

This is amazing. One of my all time favorite reggae riddims. Thank you for posting this.
Reggae?
@@nicitec1173 this rythym is used in thousands of reggae songs. Yes reggae☺️👍
@@jamieb0nd the rythm is actually orginally cuban which alot of reggae uses
You could also call it a jazz standard given how many jazz versions there are.
Great visuals! Thanks for your efforts!

Rita Montaner fue la primera en interpretar la canción en 1927 para la Columbia Records. Autor Moisés Simón Rodríguez conocido como Moisés Simons.
That's really cleverly done. Must of taken ages to do.

...but if the original was from Cuba, why is the attribution to Roy and not the El Manisero from 1930?
Do tell?
Exactly

This version is from 1931, it's a later recording.

Who on earth voted down on this one?
I think they must get paid to thumb down 🤣👍
its ok i know where they live lol
@@thegoldenageofalbowlly2759 :}
I think they voted down the title. This is NOT the original. It’s one of many.
Probably someone who didn’t get their peanuts in time.
