Al Bowlly - I Double Dare You ( Decca) Lew Stone & Orchestra

HI Al Bowlly singing: "I double dare You" with Lew Stone and his band vocals by Al Bowlly on the Decca - Fox-Trot. Recorded London 4th February 1938 I think this song suits Al's voice so well. I have Paula Green Also singing this number from 1941. Al was born Durban, Natal, South Africa on January 7, 1899 and killed by the explosion of a parachute mine in London on April 17, 1941. After touring as a vocalist and guitarist with bands in Asia and continental Europe, Al rose to prominence in London in 1931. He continued to appear and record with a number of bands, most notably those of Roy Fox and Lew Stone, but his greatest successes on record came with the studio band of Ray Noble. Their recordings achieved popularity in the USA and, with the assistance of Glenn Miller, Noble established a band in New York in 1934 with Bowlly as principal vocalist. Al returned to live in London in January 1937. He had successful throat surgery in the USA in 1937 but was to have further difficulties with his voice late in his career. Al was the most popular band vocalist in Britain in the 1930s. He remains one of the most highly regarded singers of his era because of the sincerity of his delivery of a lyric. Radiogram Model A.3766 - 1954 The Sales Leaflet states........ "The new Philco Model brings true High Fidelity within the reach of everyone - and a portable form. A powerful two waveband radio receiver ensures excellent reproduction of Home and Continental broadcasts stations anywhere in the United Kingdom on it's own inbuilt aerial. The receiver is is very selective and together with delayed automatic gain control system makes station selection very simple. Quality from both radio and gram is truly amazing, every sound throughout the entire twin speakers with push pull output of 4 watts. The tome control varies both bass and treble response and the volume control is compensated for low-level listening" Enjoy Richard
