The Glenn Miller Story The Glenn Miller Story The Glenn Miller Story is a 1954 American biographical film about the eponymous American band-leader, directed by Anthony Mann and starring James Stewart in their first non-western collaboration. Universal-International's first public announcements, early in 1953, employed the soon-discarded title, "Moonlight Serenade." The film follows big band leader Glenn Miller (1904–1944) (James Stewart) from his early days in the music business in 1929 through to his 1944 death when the airplane he was flying in was lost over the English Channel during World War II. Prominent placement in the film is given to Miller's courtship and marriage
Sometime (Glenn Miller song) 6101. The liner notes for the album by Brad McCuen described the song as follows: "Glenn and his close friend Chummy MacGregor, the band's pianist, collaborated on this quality pop song. It is a mystery why Glenn did not include this song among the hundreds he later recorded. Ray Eberle has the vocal." The version included was the April 18, 1939 performance at the Meadowbrook. There were five broadcast performances of “Sometime” by Glenn Miller and his Orchestra in 1939. It is Score 117 in the library and the composer credits are listed as Glenn Miller and John Chalmers MacGregor.
