00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:31.319

00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:51.359
Hello World and Thank you for listening in on this

25
00:01:51.480 --> 00:01:54.680
broadcast of the Make Believe Ballroom coming to you coast

26
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:59.200
to coast and across the Atlantic Ocean on wonderful stations

27
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:04.560
like members of Ported Jazz ninety point one WGMC in Rochester,

28
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:08.120
New York, and on other fine affiliates across the United

29
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:11.159
States and in the United Kingdom.

30
00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:12.400
Folks.

31
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:15.960
I received an email request this past week from the

32
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:22.120
Watkins out of Tempe, Arizona. They wrote, Jeff, you played

33
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:26.719
Woody Herman's Apple Honey on the Ballroom? Can you play

34
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:33.120
for us the Glenn Miller Stealing Apples for you the Watkins.

35
00:02:33.159 --> 00:05:52.519
Here is one as sweet as apple Pie Left Happening

36
00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:05.560
that was Stealing Apples performed by Glenn Miller and the

37
00:06:05.839 --> 00:06:10.879
Army Air Force Band. I think it was first recorded

38
00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:15.480
by Fletcher Henderson in the early thirties, as well as

39
00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:19.079
scores more. I'm not one hundred percent sure of that

40
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.240
about Fletcher Henderson, but I am one hundred percent sure

41
00:06:22.319 --> 00:06:27.120
that I have fulfilled the order to play the song

42
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:33.680
as requested by the Watkins from Tempe, Arizona and to friends.

43
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:37.279

51
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:17.680
advanced modern technology, but did need a good dose of

52
00:07:17.839 --> 00:09:07.759
late night electricity.

53
00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:12.120
It.

54
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:46.279
Say they.

55
00:08:49.399 --> 00:09:38.960
Then the road the dreamer is in most ins is

56
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:43.720
Moms the moth.

57
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:45.960
The moth is.

58
00:09:50.240 --> 00:10:24.639
The on Decca Records, One o'clock Jump by Count Basie

59
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:29.039
and his Orchestra, recorded in New York City July the seventh,

60
00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:36.120
nineteen thirty seven, and that Basi classic was called one

61
00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:42.080
o'clock Jump because the band practiced for Basi many nights

62
00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:48.320
at times, starting after one am, starting at that ungodly

63
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.679
hour when they most probably just finished doing their night's gig. Basi,

64
00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:58.840
after the nineteen thirty seven recording, made the song one

65
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:03.000
o'clock Jumps a theme song, and he played it at

66
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:05.879
the conclusion of the band's appearances. Gee I guess for

67
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:10.200
the better part of the next half century. Let me

68
00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:14.960
play one more for you. Then, folks, get your dimes

69
00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:18.039
and quarters ready, as I take you on a trip

70
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:19.799
down memory lane.

71
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:21.039
Happens very conting.

72
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:06.039
That was the Hudson de Lange Orchestra version of Bugle

73
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:11.519
Call Rag, recorded on Brunswick Records in nineteen thirty seven.

74
00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:15.000
And before that tune, I told you that I was

75
00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:18.639
going to take you on a trip down memory lane.

76
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:23.840
I was in Vegas recently and I ate at the

77
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:30.879
Johnny Rockets in the Mandalay Bay Hotel. Johnny Rockets for

78
00:14:31.120 --> 00:14:36.919
the uninitiated, as a chain of nineteen fifties retro style diners,

79
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:41.200
and on each table you could find what was pretty

80
00:14:41.279 --> 00:14:45.720
much a required piece of machinery back in the fifties,

81
00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:50.799
that being a table version of a juke box. Many

82
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:55.080
of you, of course remember those diner juke boxes where

83
00:14:55.639 --> 00:14:58.519
you threw in a coin and could choose from a

84
00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:04.000
menu of hit tunes. And of course many restaurants, bars,

85
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:09.360
and certainly pizza joints had those big behemoth chrome and

86
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:15.600
glass versions kind of a communal listening machine. If you

87
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:18.240
were in a bar, the folks who put money in

88
00:15:18.480 --> 00:15:21.519
may have hit the buttons to play a record that

89
00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:27.320
you might have either loved or hated. Sometimes I remember

90
00:15:27.480 --> 00:15:31.799
waiting in anticipation as to when the songs that I

91
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:36.360
put the money in for would be played. Coin operated

92
00:15:36.519 --> 00:15:40.919
music boxes were around since the early nineteen hundreds, but

93
00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:44.519
they really didn't come into their own until the nineteen forties,

94
00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:50.840
and that's when they were given the name jukeboxes. Jukeboxes

95
00:15:51.120 --> 00:15:55.120
were most popular from the forties through the mid sixties,

96
00:15:56.039 --> 00:16:00.679
particularly during their sweet spot years of the nineteen fifties.

97
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:04.360
By the middle of the nineteen forties, and this is

98
00:16:04.399 --> 00:16:08.879
an amazing statistic, three quarters of the records produced in

99
00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:15.919
America went into jukeboxes. Billboard magazine was very cognizant of this,

100
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:21.120
and they put together a top Hot one hundred list

101
00:16:21.240 --> 00:16:24.960
of top jukebox tunes. So why don't we spend this

102
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:28.519
segment of the Make Belie Ballroom listening to some jukebox

103
00:16:28.679 --> 00:16:32.559
hits from the Big Band era. Let's start with the

104
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:37.039
most definitive of all jukebox songs.

105
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:48.320
Mobbing Up So to Bob Rickeys, to Our Hearts, Daylight.

106
00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:54.159
To Swing Quickies, Jukebox Saturday.

107
00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:00.120
Miller Well Thanks.

108
00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:03.559
Makes holes within their lines.

109
00:17:04.519 --> 00:17:09.960
Jukebox Saturday Nights. They put nothing past us.

110
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:16.720
Me and Honey Lane making one cold blass us till

111
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:21.359
it's time to scratch money. We really don't need.

112
00:17:22.519 --> 00:17:26.839
We make out all run, letting me out for guy

113
00:17:27.000 --> 00:17:30.480
feed ba jukebox Saturday Nights.

114
00:17:34.160 --> 00:17:38.039
After saving us, So do we got a scheme? Somebody

115
00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:40.000
else plays the record machine.

116
00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:43.920
It's so easy to say pet names when you listen

117
00:17:44.000 --> 00:17:46.160
to the trumpet of Harry James.

118
00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:20.599
We love to hear that tenor cruse whatever the ks

119
00:18:20.720 --> 00:18:21.519
not sing it.

120
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:22.039
June.

121
00:18:26.640 --> 00:18:39.559
If I didn't know why the roses grow, then I

122
00:18:39.880 --> 00:18:48.480
would to why the roses growl.

123
00:18:55.160 --> 00:18:57.559
Oh, listen, Hony child. I didn't know.

124
00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:03.559
All them little things.

125
00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:08.559
I suppose alone, and I'm sure would.

126
00:19:08.480 --> 00:19:32.119
Be a sad man. Money well make me.

127
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:46.920
That was Jukebox Saturday Night by Glenn Miller and his orchestra,

128
00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:51.839
with vocals by Marion Hutting, Text, Benekey and the Modernaires.

129
00:19:52.759 --> 00:19:58.319
Glenn Miller's recordings were in the jukeboxes all over America

130
00:19:59.119 --> 00:20:04.599
by the earl nineteen forties. Another amazing statistic, at third

131
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:10.559
of all records played on American jukeboxes were Glenn Miller recordings,

132
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:16.000
and of course, the song Jukebox Saturday Night highlighted the

133
00:20:16.119 --> 00:20:20.039
three top of big band leaders of the era, Benny Goodman,

134
00:20:20.160 --> 00:20:24.480
Nick kay Kaiser and Glenn Miller himself. There also tributes

135
00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:29.160
to Harry James and the Ink Spots in Jukebox Saturday Night.

136
00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:33.519
Let Me Now play a song that, in nineteen forty

137
00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:39.039
five spent an amazing eleven weeks on the Billboard Jukebox

138
00:20:39.279 --> 00:20:39.960
Hits List.

139
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.799
Did you ever go down Trinidad? They make you feel

140

00:23:34.079 --> 00:23:36.640
Working for the Yankie Dollar.

167
00:23:41.839 --> 00:23:46.599
Rum and Coca Cola by the Andrew Sisters Orchestra conducted

168
00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:50.599
by Vic Shown, a number one record chart hit for

169
00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:57.599
the Sisters and Decca Records. Now let me play for

170
00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:02.720
you a find the record here, a nineteen forty seven

171
00:24:02.880 --> 00:24:07.480
number one tune that sat on the Billboard jukebox list

172
00:24:07.640 --> 00:26:58.720
for an enviable six weeks on Capitol Records. We just

173
00:26:58.839 --> 00:27:04.160
heard Twelfth Street Rag by Peewee Hunt and his Orchestra

174
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:08.079
and folks let me ask you this, what was the

175
00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:13.599
number one most played jukebox hit of all time? I'll

176
00:27:13.880 --> 00:27:15.880
let you think about that one for a few minutes

177
00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:17.759
while I play this record.

178
00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:26.400
Naturally, Month of June. Naturally, there's a moon that shine

179
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:38.319
a naturally, Just we two, Naturally dreams.

180
00:28:37.960 --> 00:28:39.319
Come true and we.

181
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:42.400
Love.

182
00:28:44.680 --> 00:28:49.960
You're in my arms and all your charm they are divine.

183
00:28:51.160 --> 00:28:52.000
To all of this.

184
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:55.519
Just ad a kiss and then a whisper.

185
00:28:56.000 --> 00:28:57.119
Will You'll be mine?

186
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:04.039
And naturally it's small? Will the storms make a col

187
00:29:04.279 --> 00:29:06.359
will Naturally I.

188
00:29:06.599 --> 00:29:08.000
Fool you and me.

189
00:30:03.079 --> 00:30:07.359
From Decca Records. Naturally by Ben Pollack and his Orchestra,

190
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:13.559
vocal by Paula Gail, recorded August fourth, nineteen thirty eight,

191
00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:19.599
And if I am not mistaken, that was possibly and

192
00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:25.440
I'm looking it up. It was the last recording by

193
00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:30.519
Ben Pollack and his orchestra. And I asked you before

194
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:33.720
the Pollock Tomb, what was the number one most requested

195
00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:38.599
jukebox hit of all time? Well, it wasn't a Glenn

196
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:44.640
Miller or Andrew Sisters record or Elvis Presley. Perhaps singing

197
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:50.039
hound Dog played so much on jukeboxes in the nineteen fifties.

198
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:56.160
It was a song actually written by Willie Nelson and

199
00:30:56.440 --> 00:30:58.759
sung by Patsy Klein.

200
00:31:13.559 --> 00:31:14.119
Crazy.

201
00:31:16.200 --> 00:31:18.960
I'm crazy for feeling.

202
00:31:20.240 --> 00:31:21.000
So lonely.

203
00:31:25.720 --> 00:31:27.640
I'm a crazy.

204
00:31:29.799 --> 00:31:32.559
Crazy for feeling.

205
00:31:33.559 --> 00:31:41.240
So I love.

206
00:31:42.880 --> 00:31:53.039
You, love me as long as you wanted. I'm love

207
00:31:53.480 --> 00:32:00.359
Someday you leave me for somebody new.

208
00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:06.880
Worry?

209
00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:24.880
Why do I let myself worry? Wondering what in the

210
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:39.400
world did I do? Crazy for thinking that money.

211
00:32:39.160 --> 00:32:41.400
Love could hold you.

212
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:54.160
I'm crazy for crying and crazy for crying, and I'm

213
00:32:54.400 --> 00:33:02.119
crazy for loveving you, crazy.

214
00:33:03.799 --> 00:33:05.720
For thinking then.

215
00:33:05.880 --> 00:33:08.480
Manela could hold you.

216
00:33:13.680 --> 00:33:20.359
I'm crazy for ryant and crazy for crying.

217
00:33:21.039 --> 00:33:22.880
And I'm crazy for.

218
00:33:28.279 --> 00:33:28.319
You.

219
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:43.680
Crazy, recorded in nineteen sixty one, Patsy Klein's vocal masterpiece,

220
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:49.400
written by Willie Nelson and a double whammy on Me.

221
00:33:49.720 --> 00:33:50.160
I Guess.

222
00:33:50.319 --> 00:33:53.759
Not a big band jazz and swingtune, but a country

223
00:33:53.920 --> 00:33:57.559
music record, and not a song recorded in the thirties

224
00:33:57.799 --> 00:34:02.960
or forties, but nevertheless piece of music history as Crazy

225
00:34:03.400 --> 00:34:08.840
ranked as the top played jukebox record of all time.

226
00:34:10.039 --> 00:34:13.400

230
00:34:28.639 --> 00:34:33.800
Patsy Kline jukebox trivia question a few minutes ago, another

231
00:34:33.960 --> 00:34:37.960
trivial fact I need for you to ponder during this

232
00:34:38.360 --> 00:34:43.840
next recording. The question I ask is who recorded the

233
00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:48.880
greatest number of Irish songs in the first half of

234
00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:53.280
the twentieth century. Who wrote the greatest number of Irish

235
00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:57.840
songs in the first half of the twentieth century. Well,

236
00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:02.119
this isn't Irish in nature, but it's a great one. Nevertheless,

237
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:49.639
come on over here, boy, do you want girl?

238
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:50.719

00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:55.599

00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:00.920

246
00:36:03.239 --> 00:36:06.880

He pushed the first valve down.

276
00:38:02.960 --> 00:38:04.199

277
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:05.280
Rounding around.

278
00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:08.440
When it comes up there.

279
00:38:23.039 --> 00:38:26.960
On Victor Records, that was the music goes Round and

280
00:38:27.320 --> 00:38:31.199
Round by Tommy Dorsey and his clam Bake seven vocal

281
00:38:31.360 --> 00:38:36.400
by Edith Wright, recorded in New York City, December the ninth,

282
00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:42.079
nineteen thirty five. So before Dorsey I asked who wrote

283
00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:45.599
the most Irish songs in the first half of the

284
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:48.880
twentieth century. Well, to give you a taste of his music.

285
00:38:49.599 --> 00:39:08.920

There's lots of rooms or pain, sweet little peg.

302
00:41:58.199 --> 00:41:58.599
On my.

303
00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:16.960
That was peg Oh my Heart, sung by Buddy Clark

304
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:21.360
Orchestra conducted by Mitchell Ayres, a number one hit for

305
00:42:21.880 --> 00:42:26.400
Buddy Clark and Columbia Records in nineteen forty seven. Peg

306
00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:30.880
O My Heart lyrics were penned by Alfred Bryan and

307
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:36.119
the music was written by Fred Fisher. Fred also wrote Chicago,

308
00:42:36.320 --> 00:42:39.360
That Tittle in Town, which we played a few weeks ago.

309
00:42:40.679 --> 00:42:47.639
Fred Fisher was a German born Jewish songwriter who probably

310
00:42:47.960 --> 00:42:52.400
never visited Ireland, but in nineteen seventy, the same year

311
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:56.840
he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In

312
00:42:56.960 --> 00:43:01.239
a Ripley's Believe It or Not newspaper column, Fred Fisher

313
00:43:01.719 --> 00:43:08.119
was credited with writing more Irish songs than anyone else.

314
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:15.440
Amazing but true. Also both amazing and true is the

315
00:43:15.519 --> 00:43:18.599
fact that the Make Believe Ballroom continues to add new

316
00:43:18.679 --> 00:43:21.840
affiliates across the United States as well as in the

317
00:43:21.920 --> 00:43:27.199
United Kingdom, each and every week. And now I want

318
00:43:27.280 --> 00:43:34.159
to acknowledge KZSM, our newest affiliate in San Marcus, Texas.

319
00:43:34.840 --> 00:43:38.000
I'm very familiar with San Marcus. I used to live

320
00:43:38.079 --> 00:43:43.440
in Kyle, Texas, believe it or not, of the pie

321
00:43:43.559 --> 00:43:48.519
capital of Texas. When I worked at Saint Edwards University

322
00:43:48.760 --> 00:43:54.360
in Austin. Sam Marcus was just south of Kyle and

323
00:43:54.719 --> 00:43:59.679
north of San Antonio. I went tubing many times in

324
00:44:00.079 --> 00:44:05.079
San Marcus on the San Marcus River. Beautiful yet modern town.

325
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:11.480
The downtown in Sam Marcus just oozing with that old

326
00:44:12.039 --> 00:44:17.280
Texas feel. So since I played Patsy Kline and delved

327
00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:20.800
away from our standard fair here on the ballroom, why

328
00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:24.639
not offer this tune in honor of our listeners at

329
00:44:24.880 --> 00:44:28.639
kJ z X eighty nine point one in Austin, down

330
00:44:28.760 --> 00:44:32.760
the I thirty five carridor to kz s M in

331
00:44:33.000 --> 00:44:33.760
San Marcus.

332
00:46:48.880 --> 00:46:49.920
Never Woman.

333
00:47:01.800 --> 00:47:04.880
That was Texas born O C. Stockard along with his

334
00:47:05.079 --> 00:47:11.639
wanderers and bass man Jive, recorded back in nineteen forty one.

335
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:17.920
Of course, Texas swang or Western swing. Let's see, what's

336
00:47:17.960 --> 00:47:23.320
the best way to describe it. Well, it's an amalgamation

337
00:47:23.760 --> 00:47:32.320
of rural cowboy dixieland jazz. I guess you would have

338
00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:37.679
to throw in and many Texas or Western swing songs,

339
00:47:37.679 --> 00:47:42.079
a little polka, and all of that is blended together

340
