I love playing this song while spinning around while holding a picture of my daughter.

Daddy would play these songs every Sunday morning when I was a kid. My folks are long time gone now. I miss them so much…..

""Pennsylvania 6-5000" is a famous big band swing song performed by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra. It was released in 1940 and became one of the iconic pieces of the swing era. The title refers to a telephone number for the Hotel Pennsylvania in New York City, which at the time used the telephone exchange name "Pennsylvania" followed by a five-digit number (6-5000)." ~Leland Palmer

My late father used to play this whilst his Sunday dinner cooked and my late mum would do the Yorkshire puddings. Both sadly gone up to heaven now..

[noaamonyakuza]

my mother used to play this to us when I was a kid and we'd dance around the kitchen good times

I just read an article online which states that demolition of the Hotel Pennsylvania in NYC is slated to begin in January 2022. For those who are unaware, Pennsylvania 6-5000 has been the Hotel Pennsylvania's telephone number for decades, and Glenn Miller and his band played at the hotel in the late 1930's/early 1940's. I wonder who will get the iconic Pennsylvania 6-5000 number now that the hotel is scheduled for demolition?

Acá en Chile, el Maestro Horacio Saavedra la adaptó como 24.500-03 durante la V Teletón.
