We jump back to 1934 with this song from the Warner Brothers pictures “20 Million Sweethearts” starring Dick Powell and Ginger Rogers.
Dick and Ginger make a very charming couple and I dig the radio studio setting of most of the movie.
It seems like Dick sings “I’ll String Along with You” about a dozen times in the movie, but it’s a great song from the prolific team of Al Dubin & Harry Warren.
Ted Fio Rito appeared with his band in the movie, and he had a big hit with this studio recording on Brunswick Records featuring vocalist Muzzy Marcellino:
Such a great mid-1930s sound!
