| 601094 | 2007-10-13 05:44:00 | After meaning to track down the origin of the phrase many times and then neglecting to do so, I have at last and it seems to have originated in a popular song of the '30s. Any useful hints about easily finding it for download? The keyword being "easily". One of the best known versions was sung by Elsie Carlisle with Ambrose's Orchestra c. 1934. Martynz |

| 601095 | 2007-10-13 05:51:00 | ns36912.ovh.net This a .ram link to the song. To actually download you either have to subscribe, or re-encode the stream. This is the home page for Jazz on Line where the link is located if you do a search for Ambrose, or the song title. www.jazz-on-line.com Happy listening :) |

| 601099 | 2007-10-14 01:41:00 | Strange..I can just download them..and I haven't done anything "nasty" at all... I just click on the MP3 link and I have them....256k too! Maybe they just want NZers to pay for it? I only took one for permanent...but I think I'll delete it in fairness. |

| 601101 | 2007-10-14 03:26:00 | I was so excited when I started to download yesterday that I didn't even notice that I hadn't logged in after joining. Yes, its for free....apparently, unless there's a glitch. Should someone check with the webmaster? But I don't mind having paid $5, its such a fantastic resource. Martynz |

| 601102 | 2007-10-14 07:48:00 | This is the reply I had from Michel, the webmaster: "You are right. I disconnected the file which is controlling the MP3 access because there is a bug which don't allow to download the files beginning with a number. I'm waiting to fix it." So the time available for free downloads is limited :) |
