J. Fred Coots: You Go to My Head - John Wilson Orchestra.

Описание: John Fred Coots 1897 – 1985. An American songwriter. He composed over 700 popular songs and over a dozen Broadway shows. In 1934, Coots wrote the melody with his then chief collaborator, lyricist Haven Gillespie, for the biggest hit for them both "Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town. The song became one of the biggest sellers in American history.
"You Go to My Head" is a 1938 popular song composed by J. Fred Coots with lyrics by Haven Gillespie. Numerous versions of the song have been recorded, and it has since become a pop & jazz standard.
Larry Clinton recorded the song with his orchestra in 1938, and the song became a hit, eventually reaching 3 on the pop charts. It inspired an answer song, "You Went To My Head" (by Joseph Meyer, Bob Emmerich, and Buddy Bernier) that was recorded by Fats Waller on March 11, 1938, and again by Duke Ellington (featuring a vocal by Ivie Anderson) in 1938.
The song was later recorded in 1938 by Teddy Wilson with a vocal by Nan Wynn, by Billie Holiday., and by Glen Gray's Casa Loma Orchestra. The Wilson, Holiday, and Gray versions all placed in the top-20 of the music charts in 1938. The song is played in Laura (1944 film) and The Big Sleep (1946 film).
On 23 April 1961, Judy Garland performed the song at the Judy at Carnegie Hall concert.
On this video a lovely animated arrangement by Paul Weston played by John Wilson and his Orchestra. The music takes us on a cruise ship to New York with romance in the sea air, cocktails and of course sweet music. Perhaps there's a jazzy tinkling from the Piano Bar or a Big Band combo swinging away in the ballroom. There's great music, champagne and cocktails with a large dose of sea air for all .
ENJOY all of this to a great 1930's classic - and......
