For this - second week of August 2016 - we choose an interesting video uploaded by Dr.240252 on Aug.2-2016 - titled "Old Polish Tango - Always - 1032".
The music was composed by Fred Melodyst - a famous musician whose family included many Tango greats - you can read Dr.240252's commentary which will give a quick snapshot on who is who in Tango world in Poland circa 1930 through 1939. They had arguably - the great global contribution to the magnificent collection of beautiful Tangos.
This piece has the lyrics penned by Andrzej Wlast - a promoter/lyricist/theatrical producer of famous Warsaw Tango products. The vocals are skillfully done by Tadeusz Falishewski who performed tons of outstanding Tangos and other musical genres in Poland at that time (1930 - 1939).
Be prepared for some static when you listen to this video which is due to the original being old. The artwork chosen presents the old photos of the famous Polish city of Cracow which is known for its classic architecture. The city was rehabbed but it maintains its vintage character.
At any rate - glance at my comments which are under tango3721 on Youtube. As always - have a great second week of August 2016 and don't forget to click here next weekend for our choice of the Youtube video of the week for the coming third week of August 2016!
