Скачать или смотреть Don;t Get Around Much Anymore (Vocal Edna Kaye) - Carroll Gibbons & The Savoy Hotel Orpheans

Another great Duke Ellington standard which is still played to this day, Here is Carroll Gibbons who cut this side in London, 10th, June, 1943 for Columbia records.
Carroll Gibbons made occasional return trips to the United States but settled permanently in England, though he did spend a couple of years (1930–1931) in Hollywood, where he worked as a staff composer for MGM films. He took joint leadership of the Savoy Hotel Orpheans in 1931 along with Howard Jacobs, taking sole leadership in June 1932. The group recorded hundreds of popular songs (many of which were sung by Anne Lenner) between June 1932 and his death in 1954, all featuring Gibbons on piano. Starting in about 1931, he also recorded many sophisticated records featuring a piano-led small group playing pop tunes and medleys under the name of Carroll Gibbons and his Boy Friends, of which some contained tracks by singer Hildegarde.
As a composer, Gibbons's most popular songs included "A Garden in the Rain" (1928, his Savoy signature) and "On the Air" (1932). The latter was covered by Rudy Vallée in 1933 and by Lud Gluskin in 1936. Gibbons' instrumental numbers "Bubbling Over" and "Moonbeam Dance" were also quite successful in the United Kingdom. Gibbons and his orchestra had a weekly show on Radio Luxembourg in the 1930s, sponsored by Hartley's Jam
Gibbons continued as bandleader at the Savoy until 1950 when he became the hotel's Director of Entertainments. Ian Stewart then took over as the Savoy's bandleader and music director. He married Joan Muriel (née Lidstone) in 1951. He died at the London Clinic in May 1954 at the age of 51, of a coronary thrombosis. He is one of several famous musicians buried in Brookwood Cemetery in Surrey, England
