This is apparently an early composition by three rising stars of the British Dance Band era. The record label, shown in the video, suggests that there was just one composer, credited as 'R. Carroll', but I've also included an image of the sheet music, which states that it was actually written by Reginald Batten, Van Phillips and Carroll Gibbons. The sheet music is copyrighted to 1925, the year in which Van Phillips arrived in Britain, but the recording here was made in November 1924. I suppose it's possible, then, that this song could have been composed initially by Carroll Gibbons and Van Phillips when they were still living in America, earlier in 1924. However, as the 1924 record label states just the one composer ('R. Carroll'), I'm guessing that it was written mainly or completely by Carroll Gibbons, in the first instance, and then possibly revised with Reginald Batten and Van Phillips, later in 1925 (although I can't see any glaring revisions in the sheet music, apart from the extra word in the title). In addition to all of this, the 'music publisher' on the record label is shown as simply 'Associated Copyrights', but my copy of the sheet music is published by 'Campbell and Connelly' who, I think, only started their own music publishing business in 1925. It all seems like a mystery, to me.
No matter what the 'story' behind the song, the Orpheans certainly play it very well on this record. Towards the end of the performance, there are some piano interludes, played by Carroll Gibbons himself, representing an early recorded example of his solo work.
