Hey guys!
I think I asked this same question about this time last year. I'm back with the same question. Does anyone have a list of tracks of Halloween themed music from the 1910's-1940's? So far I have downloaded/bought/own: The Skeleton In The Closet - Louis Armstrong The Skeleton Rag - Premier Quartet Skeleton Jangle - The Original Dixieland Jazz Band Devil's Gonna To Get You - Bessie Smith Haunted House Blues - Bessie Smith Black Cat Moan - Clara Smith Nightmare - Artie Shaw Dead Man Blues - Jelly Roll Morton The Black Cat Has 9 Lives - Louis Armstrong Otherwise, I have a few track listings I found online but can not locate on CD or MP3. If anyone could help me by either naming some other great Halloween themed tracks, or helping me find other great tunes to add to my library It would be greatly appreciated. Two other playlists I found: http://www.basinstreet.com/Programs/HalloweeninJazz/ http://www.publicbroadcasting.net/wfiu/gui...31&eventID=9299 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...KX0DER&v=glance http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=glance&s=music |

How about, "Mr. Ghost Goes to Town" by Mitchell Parrish, Irving Mills, and Will Hudson (1936). I have the 1999 remake version by Mora's Modern Rhythmists on their CD, "Mr. Rhythmist Goes to Town."

I'll take what anyone has! I'd reciprocate, but I think most I bought from Itunes (other than Jelly Roll, and The Skeleton Rag) and they are weird with sharing ofcoarse.

I think this qualifies as a Halloween tune! "The Little Man Who Wasn't There" by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra.

What about September In The Rain?
By the way, the file for "Soft Winds" doesn't work. I've found this to be true of several alleged files on that site. Sometimes I think they pretend they have a particularly rare recording to attract your attention, although they truly just don't have it. Kinda dumb, huh? -------------------- You can't handle the truthiness!

I'd like to add one to the Fall Playlist...
"September Song" is one of my favorite tunes -autumnal or otherwise. It has such an introspective quality to it -almost verging on melancholic. I remember the song most fondly as it was used as background music for a documentary about the New York World's Fair 1939. It was used during the sequences that illustrated the closing of the Fair in September of 1940. The somber tones of the song (the end of Summer) gave way to a crescendo of hope and renewal as the fireworks footage of the closing ceremonies burst forth and finally faded into black. Extremely effective! What a GREAT tune ... sigh. _ _ _ Gregory, I LOVE your splendid leaf photo :-) -------------------- |

Gregory,
More great selections and artwork! I'm impressed. One quick question: September Song by Harry James sounds like a clarinet and guitar. You sure it's Harry? Benny Goodman? Reinhardt? Just asking. Gart |

QUOTE(Jarred @ Sep 28 2005, 04:00 PM) "Sounds like another infamous jazz-on-line snafu!" This would be one of those situations where it would be best to heed what you're mother may have said... "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all!" Most sweetly, Gregory
