Livin' in the Sunlight - Lovin' in the Moonlight
Words by Al Lewis, music by Al Sherman
Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra, vocal refrain by Bing Crosby
Recorded March 22, 1930
Paul Whiteman was an important bandleader starting in 1919 and was a leader in development and popularization of dance music in the 1920s. His title, "King of Jazz," was somewhat misleading, but it was semi-jazz for the general public, though he gave many jazzmen hot solo spots.
Bing Crosby was born May 3, 1903 in Tacoma, Washington, grew up in Spokane and attended Gonzaga University. He teamed up with Al Rinker as a novelty singing duo, and then was hired by Paul Whiteman in late 1926. Harry Barris joined the duo and they formed the trio known as the Rhythm Boys. In 1930 the trio joined Gus Arnheim at Cocoanut Grove in Los Angeles and shortly after, Bing launched his career as a single.
