Thanks for that. The recording I would have heard would have been possibly in the 50's but I can find no evidence of Jeff Chandler singing it. The Ruth Etting version is far superior of course. No offence to Jeff Chandler fans!

Ruth Etting recorded this song on 78 for Columbia in 1930.

Brilliant. She has just the most amazing voice and the way she slides those notes sends shivers. I remember having a 78 of this song but and I believe it was Jeff Chandler singing it. Can this have been so? Help please.

Wonderful clip! If one listens carefully to the orchestral background, on guitar could be the great Eddie Lang.
