75 Years Ago Today...
...this was the number one song in the nation.
"Pennies From Heaven" was written in 1936 by Arthur Johnston and Johnny Burke.
It premiered in the 1936 film of the same name starring Bing Crosby (watch it HERE), and appeared again in a 1981 film of the same name starring Steve Martin.
Over the years, it has progressed from Crosby's ballad arrangement, to a soft swing arrangement for Sinatra, to a wild rocking rendition by Louis Prima.
