As For Music
Since Christmas there have been
a lot of new releases both of songs
and recordings. And in our opinion
they’re all rather good, but most of
them center on the usual theme of
loA^e and loneliness.
One of the faA’orites is I Dream
of You, the successor to I’ll Walk
Alone. It is one of the most often
played tunes on the air. Some of
best recordings are the ones by
Frank Sinatra {Saturday Night on
the reverse), Jimmy Dorsey {Magic
Is the Moonlight on the reverse),
Perry Como {I’m Confessin on the
reAnrse), and'Tommy Dorsey {Opus
No. 1 on the rcA'erse).
There are uoav three top-notch
novelty tunes. First is Don’t Fence
Me In. Three of the recordings are
by Bing Crosby and the AndrcAvs
Sisters {The Three Caballeros on
the other side). The Three Suns
{The Love I Long For on the other
side), and Sammy Kaye {Always on
the other side). Other is the Ra
leigh favorite Iiu7n and Coca-Cola
and One Meat Ball by the AndreAvs
Sisters. The last noA'elty is Ac-cent-
tchu-ate the Positive by Artie ShaAv
Avitli Jumpin’ on the Merry-Go-
Round on the reA'erse.
Tops among the current ballad
recordings are: Harry James’ Co
lumbia record of The Love I Long
For and I’m Beginning to See the
Light, Perry Como’s Decca disk of
I’m Confessing Avith I Dream of
You, Dinah Shore’s Victor record
ing of Like Someone In Love and
Sleigh Ride In July, Tommy Dor
sey’s More and More and You’re
Driving Me Crazy, Jo Stafford’s
Capitol record of Let’s Take the
Long Way Home and I Promise
You, Frankie Carle’s Columbia re
cording of A Little on the Lonely
Side and I Had a Little Talk With
the Lord, and Charlie SpHak’s Vic
tor disk of Right as Rain and A
Wonderful Winter.
We’re still looking for recordings
of Cole Porter’s Just Another Boy
and Girl, Lo and Behold, and Sud
denly My Heart Sings. They are
all good.
There are also many ncAv album
collections. One of the best is of
the hit tunes from Moss Hart’s
BroadAvay production and motion
picture of “Winged Victory.” It is
one of the Decca personality series
featuring the Winged Victory Cho
rus and Orchestra of the Army Air
Forces. The selections include;
Winged 1 ictory. My Dream Book
of Memories, Whiffenpoof Song, and
The Army Air Corps Song. This
is inspirational singing but if jazz
is your favorite, try the BrunsAvick
album of “Chicago Jazz Classics”
by Benny Goodman and featuring
Glenn Miller, Wingy Manone, etc.
The pieces are; Wolverine Blues,
A Jazz Holiday, Muskrat Rainble,
After Awhile, Room Ull, Jungle
Blues, Shirttail Stomp, and Blue.
MAIL PROBLEM?
Letters Avere discovered Tuesday
in a crack under the mail box in the
Smedes Post Office. The floor Avas
torn up and several letters were dis
covered and promptly mailed. So
this may explain some* hitch in Saint
Mary’s correspondence lately.
