The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Jack Payne here conducts the BBC Dance Orchestra playing "Crazy over you" from about 1930. As you will hear this is a well played copy but since I bought this in 1985 I have never been able to find another copy of it.

JACK PAYNE & BBC DANCE ORCHESTRA - CRAZY OVER YOU

Richard,

Will Young never did vocals With Payne did he?


Good song though...I still enjoyed it.

Shane,



I've now corrected the link! And your right, Will Young never did sing with the BBC DO! Would have been an intersting combo though don't you think

Forgive me for reviving a nearly 15 year old forum topic, but I was doing some research and I can across this thread by accident. I am trying to make a complete discography for Jack Payne's entire recording output, and I haven't been able to find any useful online sources that would cover the pre-CB Columbia catalog. Richardh, I don't know if you are still a user on this forum, but if you are (or if there is anyone else who might have useful information on the subject matter), I would like to know what song is on the B-side of this record of you can provide that information. Furthermore, if anyone here knows of any resources that might be useful in accomplishing the task I have set out to complete, I would much appreciate that. It's a long term project which I don't anticipate to complete anytime soon, but I would love to make some progress with this one.

By the way, it might be implied already but I absolutely enjoy this recording of "Crazy Over You". Payne is an entertaining and surprisingly versatile vocalist on his music, and the instrumental quality of his BBC records never fails to amaze me.

I'm Crazy Over You was recorded in London on February 6th 1929 and was issued on Columbia 5287. The other side was Then Came the Dawn, recorded at the same date.
This information is from Brian Rust's British Dance Bands on Record 1911 - 1945. If you can find a copy it will give all the information you need on Payne's recording output.

Thank you so much for that information!
