Cool Re: What song was #1 on the day you were born

They didn’t have record charts in 1937. And yes they did have records and not cylinders either. Back in those days the popularity of a song was based on the sale of sheet music.

The dance band heart throb of the day was probably Al Bowlly or Sam Browne who sang with bands like Jack Hilton, Roy Fox, Ambrose and Harry Roy who produced some real foot tapping, happy music that sounds as good today as it did back then.
