Will Hudson, composer. If there’s one thing that hits you over the head when you take even a brief look at popular music of the mid-20th century, it’s how much native talent and plain hard work were involved behind the scenes to bring about that great flourishing of America's “new sound” — jazz and swing.
I've loved Moonglow since I was a young girl living with my grandparents. "Gaggy," my grandmother, was a great fan of Erroll Garner, so that's the first version I heard. It's quite bouncy! I like Ethel Water's gentle, rich, warm, rendition. Thanks, Debra, for the memories!

Love the title. The moon glows here across the bay and reflects ice crystals on winter's rose bushes.
Unparalled beauty--- beckoning to sky gazers , poets, and romantics.
As always, thank you for a wonderful back story .
My dad used to sing this on his ukulele at every party we ever had back when I was young. Beach picnics, etc.
