‘Sweet and Lovely’ https://t.co/wIz4E17C3p UPDATED to list 133, inclusive of 44 wants. No more 2 day updates! Live clip https://t.co/8OKhCW6eQ0 maybe shouldn’t count as it’s 1 not its near 4 minute record’s worth: making this 5th #my78s top 44 song 3x the 44 avg. from the 1st 4

https://t.co/9LLn3SkI8b Oops #MayThe4thBeWithYou with 4 more to add. It means that my 44 average for the first 4 in the #My78s playlists batch is now OVER AND OUT by a Rogue One & a Forth to unconsciously coincide with #StarWarsDay & #StarWarsTheBadBatch from R2D2's own island

Now updated at long last https://t.co/VDGXxT0hgK and with 3 new uploads among other listed treats (e.g. https://t.co/WzGRMegONI). It’s been a while, but as promised the ‘1-song-a-playlist’ average is now at 44 [pre-1950s] renditions after updating 4 of the 44 playlists; 40 to go!

I'll be posting here @kevintoner2 my latest playlist updates for #my78s, which are somewhat growing as I countdown the 44 of these from 'Zing!' to 'Amy'; with 3 done & 41 to go! The 4th next, set to list 73 renditions of interest, would strangely reset the average to 44 per song

‘Star Dust’ https://t.co/uO9Nz8eftX UPDATED to exclude 14 & list 373 (i.e. 7 x 44 haves (+64 wants from 78 listed). This 1938 clip https://t.co/75uFEztftK of a nicely abridged medley version & 27 others don’t count for an elusive 400: making this 7th #my78s top 44 song a new top

“..sing-ing Up-on a tree-top high, To you and me he’s sing-ing..” [25 so far, of today’s #my78s song, in at No.11 or the 34th counted down] ‘The Clouds Will Soon Roll By’. Hi @jumper24, you can ignore the penultimate line “Goodbye to Storm-y Weath-er,..” ;) https://t.co/RRo1jvOYxg

@internetarchive Harry Barris at the piano. He's essential sheet music repertoire for #My78s & Bing's stardom launch song 'I Surrender Dear', come the next year (1931). Meanwhile King of Jazz, 1930 has three #My78s songs of interest: It Happened in Monterey; A Bench in the Park; Song of the Dawn

1of2/ “Once up-..“[ha!] “..you heard me say-ing a pray’r for_some-one I really could care for_..” As the songbook alphabetises today’s #my78s # ‘Blue Moon’ [49 so far], this line ∴ cross-refs back to yesterday’s page/title, but also in ways to its aligned

There's of course another #My78s, or a THE THIRTIES songbook, composition named after her 😉 if not vice versa. I revisit it in 4 scores' time. It's 'Red Sails in the Sunset' & also from the UK like 'Lady of Spain', though they're all international really!

@weeklyarchivist No, a mediaeval fakery in a Georgian place 😉. The Iberian Lady of Elche is ages with Classical Greece; 475 BC if you should say so #otd, #OnThisDay / NB: It so happens that the next Thirties-composed song on #My78s https://t.co/RvTitblvtI is called 'Lovely Lady' ie #CarrieFisher

#OTD 82yrs ago was the 1st recording of the 1st “A” song, proper, in the book, but with +4 (2 each end for 44; a 45 awaiting ‘twixt the “I”s:) here's my 1st ever video edit for the top spot, ‘Amy’ to finish off the series and today’s #my78s [with 11 so far] https://t.co/E3B0ePoIZF

trying to add link to flipside, but My78s channel @YouTube on my @Acer freezes, I'm not rebooting x2. Funny this 'Star Dust' by same artist is now available on YT & half greyed out on @Spotify, hmm! 'Please lay offf' I put a lot of work into these. Pls don't steal/cut me off #FOS

Today’s #my78s song, ‘A-Tisket A-Tasket’ [35 so far], 1st recorded 2 days 82 yrs ago, would’ve been the finale, if not the 2 to go; darn!; & perhaps about the lost basket: the yell, “..And if she does-n’t bring it back I think that I shall die.🤯😠😖😣🤧A-“ https://t.co/U1cTPu6run
