Ray Noble & The New Mayfair Orchestra with Vocal Refrain (Al Bowlly) -  I'm Glad I Waited (Youmans) from the Ziegfeld production "Smiles", HMV 1931 (UK)

NOTE: In Ziegfeld music production "Smiles" (1930) Marilyn Miller played a wartime orphan who eventually falls in love with one of the soldiers who rescued her from deprivation. Even with Fred and Adele Astaire as high society snobs and melodies by Vincent Youmans, "Smiles" was roundly blasted by the critics and sinked into oblivion.
