Glenn Miller; Glenn Miller and the AAF Band
Tonight is remembering the legendary Glenn Miller.
His music takes up quite a bit of space in my collection, not only because of the famous "Miller sound," but because of the incomperable arrangements by Miller during his leadership of the 50-piece Army Air Force Band. I believe that, had he lived, he would have gone on to be one of the greatest arrangers of our time. Prior to 1941, the Miller sound had already made its mark in films such as Sun Valley Serenade, Tuxedo Junction and The Broadcast of 1936. Miller's arrangements for the AAF Band, all created and performed to boost morale on the home front, including Stormy Weather, Perfidia, Poinciana, Juke Box Saturday Night, and 8-minute version of My Buddy, and Anvil Chorus are unsurpassed. Glenn broadcasted to American troops underground during the Wiermact Hour and pressed recordings on 12" V-Discs to support morale prior to his disappearance in 1941. I would like to offer Miller civilian recordings of In the Mood and his AAF recording of Moonlight Serenade. Something to note is that In the Mood was first attempted by Artie Shaw averaging about 10-12 minutes in length. It was far too long for a 10" 78 rpm. Glenn rearranged and recorded In the Mood as the we know it today — a vinyl pressing and one of the great swing dance numbers of all time. So, here are In the Mood and the AAF version of Glenn Miller's theme song Moonlight Serenade. Enjoy the great sound of Major Alton Glenn Miller... |

Don't You Know What The Night Can Do -- Steve Winwood Hear the night music playing? Don't you know what it's saying? We should feel it together forever Feel the beat and just hold on to the sweet midnight flowing Feel the music inside you, I'll be there too Now's the time that our dreams are finally coming true Feels so good we're crying Now's the time when it's down to me and you Spread these wings - we'll be flying Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know when it's touching you? Don't you know what the night can do? Time to show all your feeling, all the night is revealing Let the rhythm enfold you, let me hold you And we turn into music, now we never will lose it When the rhythm and night ride, no heart can hide There are times that never ever come again, memories there for making When the night comes, we better let it in, all this love for the taking Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know when it's touching you? Won't you help me to let it through? Don't you know what the night can do?

Loved this too!! Now I've discovered her doing the bolero classics of the 50's that I love! Here's another originally made famous by the incomparable Tito Rodriguez...as for her being butch, she is more then that, she is a 'papito' from the word 'go'!! And she makes no bones about it - she is openly gay, and I'm thinking from her own words - quite the activist as well! As for 'hoping'...that's about all we can do - she's as unapproachable as the furthest galaxy...me cry.
