Tommy Dorsey

Thomas Francis "Tommy" Dorsey, Jr. (November 19, 1905 - November 26, 1956) was an American jazz trombonist, trumpeter, composer, and bandleader of the Big Band era. He was known as "The Sentimental Gentleman of Swing", due to his smooth-toned trombone playing. Although he was not known for being a notable soloist, his technicality with the trombone gave him renown amongst other musicians. He was vastly admired by other musicians, however, for his technical skill on his instrument. He was the younger brother of bandleader Jimmy Dorsey. After Dorsey broke with his brother in the mid-1930s, he led an extremely popular and highly successful band from the late 1930s into the 1950s. more »

Numbers I've got by the dozen 
Everyone's uncle and cousin
But I can't live without buzzin'
Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand
I've got a sweety I know there
Someone who sets me aglow there
Gives me the sweetest "hello there"
Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand
We don't say "how are you"
And very seldom ask "what's new?"
Instead we start and end each call with
"Baby confidentially I love you"
Maybe it sounds a bit funny
When I'm away from my honey
Here's what I do with my money
Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand
