Artie Shaw,Helen Forrest - ANY OLD TIME video free download

Billie Holliday was wonderful singer and Helen Forrest too

"The female singer" in the Billie's psudo-autobiography by fuckin' Will Duffty proved not to be Helen. Helen was a great and irreputable "jazz singer." Billie was too modern, though.

I forgot to translate my comments. For those discussing about this song,I said: Stop your discussion and hear this rhythmical melody played bythe great Artie Shaw and sung by the unsurmountable Helen Forrest.

I used to hear this music on the radio all the time, I really miss singers that pronounce the words clearly and who sing with good, clear, natural voices.

I have that on The Complete Artie Shaw Volume Two.Shaw cut this originally on 24 July 1938 for Bluebird with Billie Holiday.However,Holiday was under contract to the American Recording Company at the time as had Shaw.Shaw and some bandleader named Glenn Miller felt that ARC felt they weren't pushing their records so both signed with RCA.Holiday told Shaw that she was going to leave ARC.She didn't and wouldn't leave until 1942.I was of the impression that the 1938 version of this song was never issued but it was-I have it.Like the 1938 version,this has Tony Pastor on the tenor solo.By that time,Georgie Auld had assumed all the jazz work leaving Pastor to do the vocals and section work only.This was done in early 1939 according to RCA.However,I suspect it's more like late 1938 prior to Buddy Rich joining the band in December.Both Rich and Auld had been members of Bunny Berigan's band which was a sinking ship.Most of the members of that band were gone by January of '39.Shaw's band was just starting to take off after "Begin the Beguine" became an unexpected smash hit in the summer of 1938."Any Old Time" was a Shaw original with original Shaw lyrics.His usual lyricist was a former section mate of his named Art Quenzer.

I like this song--period. Can't a person like both singers? Holliday sings this particular song a bit better. But Helen Forrest was the better singer all around. Billie could sound like she was mooing sometimes. And because well, Holliday's voice eventually went to pieces. But big band female singers have a sultry, melodic, dreamy quality to their voices that you don't hear anymore. I like the sound. Its good music.

Si, dejen de discutir tanto y oigan esta cadenciosa melodia tocada por el granArtie Shaw y cantada por la insuperable Helen Forrest.

MrT Oldies

Why is everything a damned contest on the internet? Just enjoy it.

Jakab Laszlo

How can anybody compare Billie H to Helen Forrestsure both talented singers,But i still think Helen had better style!

Lawrence Godek

I listen to this one as well as "All the things you are" more than any other songs. Helen is the ultimate and surpasses any other of the big band singers. Oh how she is missed. Wish there were more pictures vid's of her. God i love it.
