About "Whistling in the Dark (Brunswick 6097) [Recorded 1931]" by Ben Bernie And His Hotel Roosevelt Orchestra
A brave whistle in the dark, but the dark whistles back. This 1931 recording pairs jaunty brass with a shadowed undertow, like a lone figure strolling past shuttered windows. The melody smiles, yet the echo suggests something lurking just beyond the lamplight.
