Annette Hanshaw – 1931

.

Tom Barratt — issued on “Regal no.G21107,” according to the video provider, though 45Worlds.com indicates that a 78 rpm single by Tom Barratt was issued in July 1931 on (UK) Regal MR 348, b/w “Fall in Love With Me”

Jo Stafford with Paul Weston and his Orchestra – 1945

.

Nat King Cole had a hit with a 1951 recording. But this one sounds like late 50s to me.
