Al Jolson - You Are Too Beautiful (1932) скачать видео бесплатно

I remember hearing this in Hallelujah I'm a Bum and WOW! It was a toned down Jolson with a more natural sound. You could REALLY hear "romance" in his voice in the movie version of the song. It's a gorgeous song.

Interesting, and with Lombardo, somewhat iconic.Not as soulful as his performance of it in "Hallelujah I'm a Bum," but it's still Jolson, the First White Guy With Soul.Two further thoughts: This version retains the original, oddly contemporary-sounding chord changes (in the bridge) of the movie version (almost as though James Taylor had written them); never have I heard Jolson roll his "r's" as he does here.

There's some inimical quality of Jolson that simply lifts the spirit. He could deliver a song like few others.

Jolson recorded four songs with Lombardo all in the same session, this one, "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum", "April Showers" and "Rock-a-Bye Your Baby". The 1949 Harmony reissue of this recording does credit Lombardo with Jolson, as do several other sources.
