Playing Next: "Divenire" Ludovico Einaudi Accordion Cover
Random Page  /  Random Song


Ethel Waters introduced this standard in the 1929 Warner Bros two-strip Technicolor film “On With The Show!,” which is noted as the first all-talking, all-color feature length movie. For Ethel’s popular recording, listen here: https://youtu.be/WrlfU5oK2tk

Born “Gerunovitch” and initially so identified on his recordings (Brunswick omitting the “t” in the label credit), he shortened his professional name to “Gerun” not long after this session.

Transferred from 78rpm Brunswick 4429 - Am I Blue (Clarke-Akst) by Tom Gerunovich & his Roof Garden Orchestra, vocal by Jimmy Davis, recorded in San Francisco June 15, 1929
