Marvellous memory of a great orchestra

We should be very thankful to Julius Hagen at Twickenham Studios for giving us a record of the look and sound of one of the greatest ever British dance bands.Basically this is just a succession of musical numbers linked together by the flimsiest of stories.This film was shown by Channel 4 in the late eighties and i was lucky enough to record it.They even had to apologise for the state of the print as it is full of scratches and abrupt joins.However even this battered print cannot mask or disguise the sheer stylishness of the Hylton Orchestra.We are even shown excerpts from some of his tours.Dance Band music at the Paris Opera!The band only had about 4 years left as it was disbanded shortly after the outbreak of war. Just to mention that this has now been shown on TPTV in an almost pristine print.

She Shall Have Music review

A shipping magnate invites Jack Hylton and his band to broadcast a series of radio shows from one of his liners as a publicity stunt. Peculiar British musical featuring a nondescript bandleader who looked and sounded as if he would have been more at home with his racing pigeons. There are some decent numbers, and June Clyde adds some much needed life, but it's filmed without flair or imagination.
