I am 95 years old can’t dance any more but can tap my feet With anybody. When I was a sophomore in high school that was in 1939 Frank Daly who owned the Meadowbrook in NJ sent the Glen Gray band to Belleville high school. Since that time this is still my kind of music.Thanks
I hum this StLouis Blues in Swingtime to myself when out walking - just have to remember not to do a little dance to it too when I'm doing a 6 minute walk at the medical centre
I'm now 60. I began seriously listening to this music when I was 17. In that year of 1977 I recorded a weekly radio show on a Pensacola radio station, then known as WAJB. The locally produced show was called 'The Golden Age of Swing'. I never missed it for well over a year, and recorded any other programs of 30's and 40's music I could get my hands on. It was the music of my parents' era, but also with which I've always had a strong attachment!
Glenn Miller just what more can be said? Movie shot partly in Colorado,Boulder and Denver..Lines along Colfax Ave. long and quiet as Glenn(Jimmy Stewart) shown in phone booth chatting with his Babe in Boulder. Side note: I be there too. When movie first featured at local movie house I be there too. Glenn Miller held forth at Ellich Garden Band Room I begged Cousin Lawerence to take me. He had many of Glenn's 78rpm recordings. RIP: Larry..KIA WW2.Battle of the Bulge.
Absolutely gorgeous and perfect.. let's not forget that RAY ANTHONY, now 100 yrs or more, is yet alive and played with Glenn Miller... he almost deserves GOD status !!!!!!!
I am approaching 77 and I love this sort of music. Glenn Miller, etc I think that it comes from my father who in his earlier days played guitar in a band
I couldn't agree more, Inga! This is music that's come through to us - actually, with us - from the true age of music. As an 81-y.o. youngster, we're much of an age, making it easy for me to understand where you come from, musically speaking. :-)
I was just a kid, and when this type of music sounded, everybody went to the mode of singing and dancing, and was I so happy for the overall excitement..!! What times...!!
I'm from this era and I don't remember this being so chopped up off key and jerky. My collection of 78 s are as good as the day they were bought..also the band leader has all the charm of an abscess tooth...
I think the song quintet focuses on the wrong things in this song. It is not very typical for Glenn Miller to have made songs that are genuinely sad. This song romanticizes about the foolishness of love and should be sung with a glimpse in the eye. In other words they sing to serious when this is suppose to be easy listening.
Electro-Cute Respectfully, I think you miss the air of longing and tragedy that hangs over the GM sound. When he left us, that ecstatic era ended at a stroke. This arrangement is delivered very much as it was heard in 1941, with all the foreboding and sadness this country (and Europe) felt as the War that Did Not End All Wars sweltered and nearly suffocated all that we valued, short of love itself.
I am a musician by vocation who for the last 50 years has had the privilege of performing everything from boleros to ballads, Jazz, R&B, pop, salsa, hip hop and reggaetón. While all of these styles of music has it's merits the big band era holds a special place that I hope we never lose.
When I first went to London when I was sixteen I went to the Hammersmith Palais to dance. I then first heard five saxes driving hard in the Oscar Rabin band. I never did dance but sat on the edge of stage entranced.
Glen miller will be taking his hat off and smoking enjoying this concert. Just beautiful. I might be young but grew up with my parents and grandparents listening to Glen millers music.
I first heard the Glenn Miller band 1940....on the radio.. NBC ..sponsored by Chestetfields cigarettes. Coming from Cafe Rouge. In the Hotel Pennsylvania. N.Y
My dad used to play Glenn Miller on the phonograph and taught all his gorls to dance swing. Still think of him when I hear Glenn Miller. He barely talked of his service in the War. Love and respect to his generation.
This is the closest to the original version I've heard! So good! I'm 73 and once played in and sang for a big band led by a former trombonist for the Miller band when Buddy DeFranco was leader. We were pretty good, did a lot of these same charts, but not quite this well. WOW!!
@@arthurcramer4958 That would be Joe Warren. After graduating from the Vandercook school of music in Chicago, he join the Miller band and played bass trombone for a period of time. Following that he settled into a career as a school band director. Joe was an all around good musician, fine front man, and great at ad libing.

My dad played these tunes in a big band after ww Ii. Putting himself through college. Years later he would play them on the stereo and our mom would come jitter bugging into the room. That little lady could cut a rug. I eventually learned to play standards on piano. But my training was classical. I love this music.
Wonderful. My favourite music my husband and I use to dance to it but now I haven’t got him anymore I love listening to it. I’m 82 and it brings all our wonderful memories back . Thankyou. I just love it.
I born and grew up in Belize former British Honduras.We grew up listening to these beautiful music which is still appreciated today. They never get old or out of appreciation.👍
The 40's Big Band music and genius arrangers like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Artie Shaw and all of them -- may their music live on forever for the great pleasure of all generations to come!!!!! Thank you for the bands that keep the Big Band sound alive!!!!
La época de las grandes Bandas ! Fui afortunada que pude disfrutar de esa música extraordinaria. Evoco las fiestas de gala donde se bailaba esa música.
@@lindawatts5102 It's never really gone away. UA-cam is full of amazing performances by kids young enough to be my grandchildren. Lots of newer music is being arranged for big bands. If you search through UA-cam and other sources, you can find literally thousands of videos of young people playing big band style swing. iTunes, Google Play, and many other sources as well. Beautiful stuff and a great time to be aliv if you're a fan of the music.
Grandiosa melodía,composición de un gran autor mexicano, Alberto Domínguez,una gran interpretación la de Gleen Miller,aunque acá en México también teníamos una Gran Banda a cargo del fenomenal Luis Alcaraz,sus músicos eran excepcionalmente buenos, escuchénlo algún día.
T H A N K. Y O U !!! for posting this pure gold! You can WHISTLE this music! Try whistling the junk they call music of today! Yea right! My Grandparents raised me and they had just went thru the great depression of WWII. This music was what they listened to, and my parents, too. I still listened to the rock and roll of the day, and played in several bands rock and roll, but mainly country dance music, but my true love always has been BIG BAND music! I've gotten my Grandson hooked on it, as well. I'm almost 70, and folks my age are listening to rot-gut rock and some country, but there's those of us that appreciate the finer things of life...BIG-BAND !!! Thanks again for posting. Bill, from Tn. 🇺🇸
The five-part vocals are so awesome! It is so rare to hear vocal groups rather than solos with big bands nowadays. Thank you for keeping up the Modernaires tradition!
EXCELLENTE !!! Fabulous !!!!! Oh, to be young in those times !!! I was born in 1950 ; I heard my Mom and Dad listen to these songs on the RADIO !!!!!!!! Beautiful !
HOLY COW!!!! THIS SOUNDS IDENTICAL TO THE ORIGINAL!!! Excellent version!!!! I don’t think I’ve heard a band capture that 30’s-40’s sound like this one!! The sax vibrato/tone especially is SPOT ON!!! And the ensemble stuff with the singers!!!!
@@catherinemontblanc1430 When I said Miller songs I ment that it was recorded by Glenn Miller. You are right that it isn't written by him, If I remember right the composer is from Mexico.
At a custom auto show back in 1972 in Kansas City, there was a band from St Louis with about 13 members in the band, that played the normal R&R runes that were popular then. Really great band that had all the horns, sax's as well as the guitars and other usual instruments. People were just walking around looking at the cars. After the band finished a tune one of the guys stepped up to the mic and said, "We are going to take you back about 30 years now." They broke into "In the Mood" by Glenn Miller. They sounded fantastic. When they finished, the place erupted in applause and cheers.
Brought my father-- a WWII vet-- to see them maybe 20 years ago. Was so satisfying to see this music loved by so many of the younger generation musicians. Keeping it alive.
So happy memories then ? Im 62 so before my time but what great sound I've watched the Glenn Miller story and loved it. Great to dance to also did you go dancing to this sound also ?
I'll be 84 in two months and play in a local concert band. My background is in big band jazz drumming, and the mostly classical that we play now skips most of the rhythm that I like.....but....it keeps me young and having fun. The St. Louis Blues march is nice....a blend of a march with a bit of jazz thrown in. An easy piece for a beginning drummer. The piece was featured in "The Glenn Miller Story," in the 1950s. Starred Jimmy Stewart as Glenn. I remember all this music when I was kid in the WWII years. Our band is working on "Selections from 'Chicago'" at this time. Fun piece, but a challenge due to the several tempo changes that are a "surprise."
The Glenn Miller Band is my favorite of the great band Era of the 40's in the mood is one my favorites along with Chattanooga Choo Choo man they were good!
I remember hearing this song on the radio in my mother's car when I was in an adult I was in my thirties... It's one of the most beautiful songs I know...and my mother's long and gone for over 20 years but whenever I hear this I think of my dear mother and that wonderful trip in the car.

Clari mixed with saxes magical sound orchestra wow love it wow when clari comes with saxes Glenn was genius band lead every combination of orchestra is cool is exhilarating n sax solo awesome as is whole ensomble wow ta all
I had the pleasure to play at Glen Island Casino as a member of a high school stage band in 1964 and 1965. Absolutely Loved Glen Millers music. Really loved playing "American Patrol." Fabulous music!
Truly Glenn Miller sound as i am a real Glenn miller Fan as i am almost 75years old born in the Big Band Era Lots of Swing and Jive. And I have quite a few of his Orchestral Music on cd and earlier on Vynil
My mother loved this music and I also grew to love it, I was born after WWII, but I have always enjoyed this generation of music and Big Bands!!!!! Diane
I LOVE AND LIKE THE MUSICS SO MUCH. MY MEMORIES OF MY YOUNGER DAYS REMINDED OF HOW WE ENJOYED DANCING TO THIS MUSIC. OUR GENERATION WAS REALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE NEW GENERATION.
Sounds like my parents were from the same era as you. I used to love to watch them dance together there was nothing like it. It was a very good time in our history to be alive I feel. You were very fortunate to have grown up in that time frame. The generations now don't understand and appreciate anything. It's really sad how our society has turned out. I would love to see the big bands come back and the people dance like they used to.
Same here, I am 67-yo, I worship the ground our Greatest Generation walked on; that was America at its greatest. I have always thought I was born in wrong generation, my soul belongs to the era of 40's. Those days are gone forever, sadly :-(
When , in ,D.C.,in 1987, studying Art at National Gallery, painting. In early evening on a Friday , walking across Mall, would see and hear Marine Band playing, among others Saint Lois Blue's...What a great time. Memories.🇺🇸🌷😍🇩🇰🌅🎶🎵
Thanks so much for such great posts, Mr Nillson. This fine music far exceeds the narrow era of WW2 and will never die. Unforgettable tunes, great rhythms and boundless energy, at times in a precise, martial structure, at others, breaking into exuberant swing. Aren't we lucky to have it around still?
Am 93 and still remember this beautiful song
Hi. Are you still alive?
がくせいのころからきいてましたきもちがおちつきますありがとうございます😂😂❤❤
I am 85 love country but you will never take the big bands from me can listen forever.

the clarinet really adds to the miller sound.

I was just a kid, and when this type of music sounded, everybody went to the mode of singing and dancing, and was I so happy for the overall excitement..!! What times...!!
And i was a little girl, Que saudade essa musica traz.
What a fine rendition of the great Glenn Miller Orchestra and now for the 21st century!
I'm from this era and I don't remember this being so chopped up off key and jerky. My collection of 78 s are as good as the day they were bought..also the band leader has all the charm of an abscess tooth...
This band has the best sounds of the original Miller band. I could listen to this band all day. What a find.

What a beautiful sound. So glad to have grown up with all the great bands and singers.
I listen my father when he puts the radio and listen beautiful music, great.
You listen to these singers and then you say" Have we progressed?" Enough Said . Please take me back to the old times . T.Heslop. UK.
AMEN AND AMEN!
So true.. amazing talent
My mother loved this music and I also grew to love it, I was born after WWII, but I have always enjoyed this generation of music and Big Bands!!!!! Diane
Oh the wonderful everlasting sounds of Bug Bands, thanks so much for great rendition 👍
Que recuerdos eran otros tiempos NOSTALGIA
I LOVE AND LIKE THE MUSICS SO MUCH. MY MEMORIES OF MY YOUNGER DAYS REMINDED OF HOW WE ENJOYED DANCING TO THIS MUSIC. OUR GENERATION WAS REALLY DIFFERENT FROM THE NEW GENERATION.
Naty Iledan very very very different!😥
Sounds like my parents were from the same era as you. I used to love to watch them dance together there was nothing like it. It was a very good time in our history to be alive I feel. You were very fortunate to have grown up in that time frame. The generations now don't understand and appreciate anything. It's really sad how our society has turned out. I would love to see the big bands come back and the people dance like they used to.
Same here, I am 67-yo, I worship the ground our Greatest Generation walked on; that was America at its greatest. I have always thought I was born in wrong generation, my soul belongs to the era of 40's. Those days are gone forever, sadly :-(
When , in ,D.C.,in 1987, studying Art at National Gallery, painting. In early evening on a Friday , walking across Mall, would see and hear Marine Band playing, among others Saint Lois Blue's...What a great time. Memories.🇺🇸🌷😍🇩🇰🌅🎶🎵
Cannot beat Glenn Millers tunes and songs takes me back to my younger daysHad the liking for this kind of music from my father
Sono sempre stato un appassionato e seguace di Glenn Miller è la Sua orchestra che seguo spesso su UA-cam. Grazie per la bella musica sempre in auge.
WOW from my 79 yrs. memory, thank yo so much.
Beautiful, I love this music, I’m so glad my father introduced me to it 😍
Delicioso despertar oyendo al recordado Miller en esta versión suprema!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏Chapo‼️
My favorite music by far! Big Band's are the Best!🇺🇸🎵🎶❤️
Thanks so much for such great posts, Mr Nillson. This fine music far exceeds the narrow era of WW2 and will never die. Unforgettable tunes, great rhythms and boundless energy, at times in a precise, martial structure, at others, breaking into exuberant swing. Aren't we lucky to have it around still?
I could not agree more.
Mi orquesta favorita y melodías que me hacen soñar despierta, sobre todo Perfidia, mi preferida.
