Hoagy Carmichael


Am I Blue?
Slim (Lauren Bacall) and Cricket (Hoagy Carmichael) duet on "Am I Blue?" from To Have And Have Not (1944).

Hoagy Carmichael and Jack Teagarden (1939)
Still relatively new to movies ("Topper" was in '37; "To Have and Have Not" wouldn't be filmed till '44), Hoagy is slightly uncomfortable but game here, as he introduces Jack Teagarden's first big band (trumpeter Charlie Spivak solos on "Stardust"; future Glenn Miller reedman Ernie Caceres is also present). The short features several of Hoagy's best known songs, sung by Hoagy, Big Tea or Meredith Blake, one of the better but underrated big band "girl singers."


Rockin` Chair - (1956).
Hoagy wrote this little masterwork in 1932 for singer Mildred Bailey. Now the master sings it by himself! It`s recorded at 9-9-1956 with The Pacific Jazzmen!
