Dorsey Brothers Orchestra - "Anything Goes" 1934 - Words & Music By Cole Porter - From The Musical Anything Goes - Dorsey Brothers Orchestra began recording in 1928, but didn't become a real band until 1934. The 1934 band featured both Glenn Miller and Bob Crosby, but didn't last long because Tommy and Jimmy were always fighting with each other and in 1935 Tommy stormed off the stage quitting the orchestra. He soon took over Joe Haymes Orchestra re-naming it the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. Jimmy continued on with the Dorsey Brothers group re-naming it the Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra. Tommy's orchestra was the more successful of the two but both bands were very successful. In 1953, Jimmy and Tommy reunited and continued playing together until Tommy's death in 1956. The Dorsey brothers had a popular television variety show on CBS in 1954 and one episode featured the first TV appearance by the then unknown Elvis Presley.
