Glenn Miller and his Orchestra performing "In The Mood", released originally in 1941.
"In The Mood" is one of the best-known musical themes of the 1940s and one of the big band era's most recognizable songs. The song was the biggest hit of 1940 WHC and of Miller's career. The song went through several others' hands before it ended up with Miller.
This song was based on a song called "Tar Paper Stomp" which was recorded in 1930 by Joseph "Wingy" Manone, who was a bandleader from New Orleans. This song was written by the Tin Pan Alley composers Joe Garland (music) and Andy Razaf (lyrics). "In The Mood" is an expression that indicates a desire to have sex. It was pretty innocent at the time, but a little racy.
Miller recorded it in 1939, and the song became wildly popular in early 1940, shortly before Billboard began publishing its "Music Popularity Chart." This makes it hard to gauge the song's appeal at the time, but it helped Miller become the top bandleader in the world - in that first Billboard chart, he held down three of the Top 10 places.
Glenn Miller was an American big band trombonist, arranger, composer, and bandleader. He was the best-selling recording artist from 1939 to 1943, leading one of the best-known big bands. Miller's notable recordings include "Moonlight Serenade," "In the Mood," "Tuxedo Junction," "Chattanooga Choo Choo," "A String of Pearls," "At Last," "(I've Got a Gal In) Kalamazoo," "American Patrol," and "Little Brown Jug."
"In The Mood" is a well-known and iconic song from the big band era, and the biggest hit of Glenn Miller's career. Miller was one of the most successful bandleaders of his time, and his recordings continue to be popular today.

Wow, really cool. Born in early 20's like my parents and he's still around. Great post, I'm reading about him now. Thanks for the interesting historical trivia, I love it. Such great music from a long lost bygone era. The sad truth is musical art in American society has deteriorated so pathetically that the likes of rap and hip hop dominate the American musical culture. The simple turth is that it took so much more hard work, talent, and discipline to write, arrange, and perform this music than it does today for some rapper in baggy pants to prance around a stage speaking rythmically and making billions off misguided and brainwashed Americans that have never been exposed to what great musical art really is.

We were fortunate enough to hear the Glenn Miller Orchestra in Dallas two weeks ago. The orchestra has been touring non-stop for 80 years! At this performance, there was a 100 year old lady in a wheelchair who got up and danced along to the orchestra. The really amazing part: in 1942, this same woman danced in front of the REAL Glenn Miller and his orchestra in Norman, OK where they were performing. We will never see anything like that again. When she was 20, how could she have ever known that 80 years later she’d be dancing to this orchestra again?

What happened to the Right that doesn't get triggered? I thought the Left was supposed to assume that position. Apparently you're the ones who got triggered.

The list of famous jazz musicians he met back when he was a kid when his dad would take him along to a lot of his performances was amazing. Just thought I would share.

@michaelmapes4119 3 месяца назад

actually their heyday was back in the early 30's to early 40's. By the end of WW2, it became expensive to field an large band like this. Housing and food being the big expense. Unless you were on or staring in (Like Sammy Kaye or even Spike Jones) a weekly radio program, you had to cut the band down to a trio/quartet in order to make any money. Even the Dorsey Brothers finally had to come back together for a final gig on TV.

Yes - written by Joe Garland, based on Tar Paper Stomp by Wingy Manone (1930). The original version was ~6 minutes long and no one could figure out how to cut it to fit on a standard 78. That arrangement was bought and sold multiple times, eventually ending up with Artie Shaw who performed it once on a broadcast. He sold it to Miller who DID know what to cut and what tempi to change ... and the rest was history.

Timeless ❤

When I went to college in the mid-70's, we had a marching band who would play songs in the stands during football games. This was my most favorite song that they would play, although I had no idea what it was. It wasn't until I went home and told my mother about it and "la la'd" a bit of the melody to her that she said, "Oh, that's In The Mood!". It's a timeless song and each generation enjoys hearing it.

The sound track you are hearing was recorded in 1983 by a cover band. The REAL Glenn Miller band sounded much better. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6vOUYry_5Nw.html

@@davidpugh7503 no this is the same track but your post has the digitally enhanced version. Its even in the title. Its been remastered.

@davidpugh7503 Год назад

@@dsvet It definitely is a different track. It's from a CD entitled "In the Digital Mood" and it was recorded in 1983. It's a note for note copy of Miller's 1939 recording. The digitally enhanced version in my post is the actual sound track recorded in 1941 for the movie "Orchestra Wives". Notice the tenor sax and trumpet solos in the digitally enhanced movie version are different from what you are hearing on the CD version (you can actually see that the fingering on Billy May's trumpet solo does not match the notes you are hearing on the CD sound track). I play in a big band and we have this arrangement with the 1939 solos written in. That is the same version the cover band is playing on the track.

I saw the Glenn Miller orchestra back in the late 90's. Obviously it wasn't the original members, but the orchestra has never actually disbanded. They've been going at it since the 40's with musicians coming and going over the years. When I heard them for the first time as that curtain was going up, I got goose bumps all over. So amazing!

The orchestra DID disband for about six years. Tex Beneke was tapped to lead the postwar band but got into a battle with RCA and the Miller Estate over its musical direction. RCA "pulled the plug" in 1950 and only re-formed the band in 1956. It's been continuously performing ever since, and has even spawned official clones in the UK, EU, and Scandinavia.

@frankvlogs5033 Месяц назад

My parents are from Mexico too. However, they never introduced me to that music, as they were born much later. My mom’s parents were born right at the start of Bebop, but my dad’s parents were born right before the Swing era. I was never introduced via my grandparents, but I had an elderly neighbor (unfortunately, I think she died). During the beginning of COVID-19, I would hear her play this song so loud that I was able to hear it in my apartment room. I had asked my dad what that song was, and he told me to try to look at Glenn Miller. I didn’t start listening to Jazz until this year. I never told my parents I like this kind of music because I am sure they will think I am a weirdo. Anyway, it’s cool to see my fellow Mexican homies listening to Jazz.

All our lives it was playing in the background when she was doing the housework, or her dressmaking, so me and my brother heard it ALL the time. Last year we played it at her funeral, it will never sound the same again. Miss you mum, maybe dad will learn to dance with you up there.

@greglattanzio3683 4 месяца назад

For sure a lot of great music was made in the Big Band Era. And the respect people SEEMED to have for one another was something to be emulated. However, the social injustices in the same time period (and before and after) certainly were not. When this music was popular minorities in many parts of the country were publicly hung by their necks from the nearest tree for what, quite literally, amounted to just looking at someone of a different race in a way that wasn't considered proper by some. I'm not certain what was so great about that. I wish you could have kept the politics out of your comment and enjoyed the music so I wouldn't have had to educate you.
