Isham Jones Orchestra – Some Other Day, Some Other Girl, Fox-Trot (Gus Kahn /Isham Jones) Brunswick 1924 (USA) NOTE: Isham Jones Orchestra - one of the best dance bands in USA in the 1920s thru the 1930s, here performs one of the tunes composed by Isham Jones. He led several bands, in which he also played as saxophonist and pianist. Jones recorded prolifically during 1920-1927, with most selections being jazz-oriented dance band performances. In 1929-1932 his recordings became more commercial, yet the musicianship is high and the melodic renditions are still interesting. His 1932-1936 big band became the nucleus of the first Woody Herman Orchestra, when Isham Jones decided to retire. However, thru the next decade he still led some pickup bands, until 1947. Isham Jones’s another great legacy is songwriting, he composed "It Had to Be You," "On the Alamo," "I'll See You in My Dreams," "The One I Love Belongs to Somebody Else," and "There Is No Greater Love," among others. He died of cancer in Hollywood, LA in 1956.
