Oh, ein Song für die Atombombe...

Thanks so much for uploading this. The song was used in the 2007 German, gay-themed short film of the same name, written/directed by Matthias Vom Schemm. The risque lyrics were standard fare in the sexually carefree cabarets of the time, I've been told.

Typical the jazzy operetta style of Paul Abraham, I like it, he was unique!

The yuppies who are rebuilding New Orleans are too young to remember and have no place in their hearts for the music that originally made New Orleans famous. So don't waste your time gong there and expecting to hear world-class Dixieland and other jazz music. Except for some loud recordings, IT IS JUST NOT THERE NOW! I don't think it ever will be again.

When I* was a child in New Orleans, people from all over the world -- especially Europe would come and listen and learn from the great Dixieland jazz artists we had in our town! The entire place until as late as the late 1960s was alive with the beautiful music like you have here on your site. In the 1970s, they started playing rock, then rap and the only jazz place left was Preservation Hall. Then came Hurricane Katrina! All the live jazz is gone now!

I can't tell if this is Yiddische or German but it is nice to listen to!

GREAT STUFF!!!!

They used to have music like this in New Orleans until Hurricane Katrina destroyed the music community.Now police will arrest you if you play music outside without a permit and you can only get a permit with great difficulty!

Don't go there expecting to hear this good music anymore because IT IS GONE! The last place in the US where you could enjoy music like this live!

Paul Abraham with "Blume von Hawaii" was great! Totally were forgotten so many beatifully songs.

Wish there was more recordings of his dance orchestra than the light orchestral sort,his "tanz orchester" was very good i think!
