"All I Do is Dream of You" (1934)

Let's jump back to 1934 for the song “All I Do is Dream of You” from MGM’s “Sadie McKee” starring Joan Crawford.

I’ve seen this piece of sheet music quite a bit over the years, so I figure it must have been a good seller. I would attribute that to the song itself, which would be a fun number to play on the piano at home, and to the popularity of Miss Crawford!

Gene Raymond sings “All I Do is Dream of You” a few times in the movie, so anyone who sees the movie is well aware of the song, another from Arthur Freed and Nacio Herb Brown!

Let’s listen to this snappy version on Brunswick from Freddy Martin and his Orchestra featuring Vocalist Elmer Feldkamp:

I really like Elmer’s singing a lot. He unfortunately passed away prematurely in 1938, but he did cut a number of records that we can still enjoy today!
