Your favorite music from 1935

Can be a single track, a 78 with multiple tracks, early albums (as in literal albums of 78s bound together), a classical piece, a later compilation focusing on the year . . . whatever.

Doesn't have to be a list, though of course you can post a list if you want. You can also just post one title at a time as you think of it/run across it (which is what I do in these threads).

 

Benny Goodman - "Basin Street Blues" (with Joe Harris on vocals)

 

Leroy Carr- 'When the Sun Goes Down'

 

Wait until we reach the late 40s. I'll flood the thread with Thelonious Monk!

 

Was just jamming through Blue Monk on my guitar less than 5 minutes ago.

 

Clouds by Ray Noble & his Orchestra, vocal by Al Bowlly, recorded in NYC February 9, 1935. It's also my fave Noble/Bowlly song.

 

Duke Ellington - In a Sentimental Mood

William Walton - Symphony 1
Bela Bartok - String Quartet 5
Igor Stravinsky - Concerto for 2 Pianos
Darius Milhaud - Cello Concerto 1
Michael Tippett - String Quartet 1
Hank Badings - Symphony 3

 

A lot of versions of “Blue Moon” came out in 1935. It was written by Rogers & Hart in 1934.

 

Great western swing version of "St. Louis Blues" by Milton Brown and his Musical Brownies.
Issued in 1935 on Decca 5070. Recorded in Chicago on Jan 27, 1935. Vocal by Milton Brown.

 

In 1935, the Boswell Sisters had a #1 hit with "The Object of My Affection", the biggest of twenty top 20 records they would enjoy.
