This is what sounds to me like the opening number on an LP recorded about 1960 which I bought when we had our first HiFi. The quality of the sound is much better than the original recording from the 40's. Many thanks for the upload.

This was the closing tune of one of the best radio programs in the 70s here in Holland. I love this number. In most cases they had to face it out, because of time limitations, but every once in a while they played it in full. I really love this number, it brings back so many great memories. And this is the original mono version. Gray later recorded it in stereo, but that didn't have the same drive.

This was my mother's favorite tune and band. I grew up on this shit. She was quite a good singer and she could "vocalese" every solo on this record! It was great fun!

Hi,TonofRecords, I think Your record is from the 50th, because it sounds VERY modern! Listen to my record. It's original from 1940.

A further note on the original recording that was on two sides of a 10" disc. The Casa Loman's also made another version that was on an electrical transcription. This version also ran over six mintes. One interesting thing on it was the clarinet solo where the clarinetist segued a portion of "Anything Goes" into his solo. It was kind of a nice extra to the tune.

Marcus Brazil

Sure enjoyed this one and I thank Gwen for sharing.

Sorry It took so long to get back to you. I don't think I have that record in my collection. I'll keep an eye open for it while shopping.

The Casa Loma band was always great. Never made the #1 spot, but superb.

Anybody know of the whereabouts of 'Around The World' by Glen Gray?

This is definitely NOT the original Decca recording made in '40. The cadence is a little sloppier here than in the original (I have the original 2-sided 10-inch version). Also I agree that from the design of the record sleeve and the sound quality that it has all of the ear marks of having been recorded in High Fidelity stereo in the '50's. It's still pretty true to the original though, all the same. :)

Hello! Do you have Jonah Jones with GG and C L Band playing Tenderly? If you do please post it as it is amazing especially because Jonah Jones is playing trumpet! He rocks!!

TonofRecords

Thanks. I hope you find a good copy. This is the only one I can offer you.

TonofRecords

Cool. That helps, I've got an odd release here. Thanks.

see my comment some minutes ago (sorry for posting it in the wrong place); maybe Capitol also did monaural "modern" Swing Big Band recordings at an earlier stage they did not re-issue in later days of hifi-steophonics?
