Boo Hoo - Carmen Lombardo, Cliff Grass and Fred Higman sing Boo Hoo. This song was one of their greatest hits and was one of their greatest hits and was written by Carmen.
Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians were one of the most successful big bands of all time. It was very much a family outfit with three brothers in the band. Also, from 1941 til the late 1940's a sister was the lead vocalist.
The band was formed in Canada in 1921 and was still going strong 50 years later. The band introduced more than 300 songs many of which became hits. A lot of the songs were written by Carmen Lombardo.

Written for an early 30s Yiddish musical comedy, the tune became a sensation when an up-and-coming girl trio named Andrews recorded it with new English lyrics by Sammy Cahn & Saul Chaplin. The Lombardo version also sold well.
CD audio, originally issued on 78rpm: Victor 25739 - Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen (Cahn-Chaplin-Jacobs-Secunda) by Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians, vocal by male trio, recorded in NYC December 15, 1937
