ber of such bands as that of Artie
Shaw, Glenn Miller and Benny
Goodman, Castle finally joined up
with Tommy and Jimmy when they
created “The Fabulous Dorsey Or
chestra,” as musical conductor and
featured trumpeter.
Jimmy Dorsey is credited with
putting the juke box industry on
it’s feet. Emphasizing a sweeter
style, Jimmy’s recordings of “Ama-

pola,” “Maria Elena,” Green Eyes,”
“I Hear A Rhapsody” and “Besame
Mucho” were a few of the biggest
juke box favorites ever recorded.
Jimmy Dorsey, who sold over 40
million records, was also responsi
ble for one of the recording in-
dustrys first million sellers, “John
Silver.”
Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey are
credited with delighting audiences
from coast to coast for a period
of over two decades with fabulous
musi'c. The first Dorsey Brothers
Orchestra was formed in 1922 as
a small group called the Dorseys’
Novelty Band which played around
their home town of Shenandoah,
Pa. Then, for nearly 10 years, they
performed as top instrumental
soloists for the leading orchestras
of the period. In 1934, they or
ganized their own orchestra and
began to make musical history. In
two years they established musical
tradition for an entire generation.
Finally, Tommy and Jimmy decid
ed to go their individual ways, and
two fine orchestras emerged. To
gether and apart, the Dorsey Bro
thers sold a combined total of 110
million records. They were respon
sible for the first success of manj
top vocalists, including Farnk Si
natra, Dick Haymes, Jo Stafford
and Connie Haynes.
Playing before their greatest
audience on. CBS Television’s hit
program, “Stage Show,” the fabu
lous Dorseys won the favor of an'
entire new generation of music
lovers.
Jimmy Dorsey’s recording of “So
Rare” represented his first big
hit in about 14 years., and the
million teen-agers who today make
or break today’s record stars
turned this record into one of the
astonishing successes in recording
history. He recorded “So Rare”
and Sophisticated Swing” in the
still popular, sweet and simple
method that made him such a ter
rific celebrity in the 1930’s and
early ’40’s. His style of music
proved to be the kind of music
that becomes a legend throughout
the years.

"APPLE OF THE EYE
For this overworked phrase,
we must turn to the world's
richest source of quotations—
the Bible. Specifically,
the Old Testament,
Deuteronomy, XXXII, 10;
"He kept him as the apple
of his eye.”
"ALL IS NOT GOLD”
Seems like everybody had a crack at this piece
of homely philosophy, but the originator seems
to be Geoffrey Chaucer, in “The House of
Fame", Book I:
"Hyt is not all gold that glareth”
"COUNT 10...”
Was there any limit to the talents of Thomas
Jefferson? Statesman, scientist, architect—he also
authored this admonition:
"When angry, count ten before you speak;
if very angry, a hundred.”
