Description

On The Turntable In 1938: 'Begin The Beguine' - Artie Shaw
Hear here: [link]

Famous radio event of 1938: Radio broadcast of 'War Of The Worlds'.

I think Sweetie and I will get dressed up tonight and have the chauffeur drive us to the ballroom to dance to the Artie Shaw Orchestra playing 'Begin The Beguine'. The Champagne will flow since we have a driver. We would be stylin' in this 1938 Packard Super Eight Touring!

I think we were born too late. We love the old elegance, the dancing, the cars, the movies. They just don't write 'em or make 'em like that any more.

I forgot to comment on this photo when it came up... AWESOME. Why can't anybody build classy cars now? (witness the new Rolls Royce)

Listing a hit song with your pix is absolutely your own style... don't change a thing! Begin the Beguine was my Mom's favorite tune...
