We have several new tunes to bring tomorrow night for our latest gig at Sal’s Speakeasy in Ashland, Ky., including this one that the great Ray Henderson wrote almost a hundred years ago.
This song was first recorded by Paul Whiteman and his orchestra in the mid-1920s, but its real claim to fame came 15 years later when it was the title tune for a beloved Bing Crosby movie that was released on the eve of America’s entry into World War II. Here’s “Birth of the Blues.”
Remember, we’re at Sal’s Speakeasy tomorrow night, playing from 6 to 9. Come on out and party with us at 1624 Carter Ave. in beautiful downtown Ashland, Ky.
