The Tommy Dorsey Orchestra - Manhattan Serenade download song

Boys: Tom e Jerry...Mans: The Godfather...

Great tune by great band.

Im born from 90s And I was know the instrumental from Tom and jerry

I still have the original 78 of this song:)

The Godfather and Tom and Jerry have this in common. The wonder of Cinema.

I didn’t think about this until today, and The Godfather is one of my favorite films. Consider the scene when this plays: Tom Hagen flies to convince Jack Woltz to give Fontane the film role. Now think of this in the context of real-life inspirations: who was the inspiration for Fontane? Sinatra. Who is the inspiration for the bandleader in the story Woltz heard? Tommy Dorsey. Of course, what recording is playing as Hagen lands? This one by Dorsey.It suggests the use of this music in the film was very intentional. It also suggests - to me, anyway - something sinister in its usage. One can imagine Hagen hearing this tune in his head as he’s landing, thinking about how the family got what it wanted from “the bandleader” all those years ago, and how they will get what they want again now when Woltz is persuaded. Because the family gets what it wants.

It’s cartoons like Tom and Jerry and the Looney Tunes cartoons made me love the oldies, they may be oldies but they sure are goldies

Watching the Godfather and of course the great Tom and Jerry got me to look for this tune.

Great tune by great band.

The song gives me the feeling that I was another person that lived in Los Angeles in the late 1930’s/the 1940’s when I listen to it.
