Frances Day 1932 Savoy Hotel Orpheans

Band on film! Endearing 30s melody sung by New York cabaret singer Frances Day. Backed by Carroll Gibbons and the impeccable Savoy Hotel Orpheans. Former leader Harold Jacobs on clarinet and sax also stars. Song composed by Dyrenforth-Rose-Gibbons in 1931 Day's career began when she was spotted dancing at Texas Guinans speak in New York. Then off to London and became a rising blonde nightclub cabaret singer. She toured the provinces in 1930 and made her London stage debut at the Hippodrome in 1932 in "Out of the Bottle". Same year she appeared in this rare short with the Savoy Hotel Orpheans. She also made films and records for HMV Victor. One with Al Bowly from 1933 is here:    • Video   (real name Frances Victoria Schenck) (b. December 16, 1908, East Orange, New Jersey, USA -- d. April, 1984, Windsor, UK) American actress and singer who achieved great popularity in the UK in the 1930s. This is an audio restoration project. The sound of the 16mm film has deteriorated with word dropouts in the vocal.and uneven balance. I digitally restored it to improve its fidelity. Enjoy.
