Rudy Vallee - Deep Night 1929 video free download
Reached #2 On US Music Charts In 1929 - Words and Music Written By Charles Henderson.
Rudy Vallée (July 28, 1901 -- July 3, 1986) was an American singer, actor, bandleader, and entertainer.
Vallée became the most prominent and, arguably, the first of a new style of popular singer, the crooner. Previously, popular singers needed strong projecting voices to fill theaters in the days before the electric microphone. Crooners had soft voices that were well suited to the intimacy of the new medium of the radio. Vallée's trombone-like vocal phrasing on "Deep Night" would inspire later crooners such as Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, and Perry Como to model their voices on jazz instruments.

I also believe tha Mr. Vallee this song. Sadly the only one he did write. He had not only a unique style of siging but his lyrics are beutiful. I did a radio interview with him in 1977 and asked why he didn't write more. He said that he was just too busy at that time to devote to writin11 years ago
