Dance By The Light Of The Moon
Denver Darling and His Hillbillies perform the old standard in a manner that suggests a stage performance in this soundie.
It's one of more than two thousand "soundies" produced between 1939 and 1947, meant to be played on a device called a Mills Panoram. For seven years they could be found in bars, night clubs, and other places where people would gather. Think of them as music videos, available for viewing at a dime a song. Other companies got into the production end also.
I had never heard of Mr. Darling before this, but it's a pleasant version of the song. I don't imagine you can ask for more than that.
