@3investigators That's the 'shnazola' all right! "Good night Mrs. Calabash where ever you are." Jimmy bid good night to her on all his TV shows of the early 50's. Jimmy was irish and Calabash was his real surname. He was saying goodnight deceased wife.
Also,if they were going to have him at the piano,besides being the waiter,I think they would have let us know it was him for sure,by doing a closeup or something.
This is such a treat to hear and see--thank you so much for posting!!!! :-)

That's not Jimmy Durante at the piano, an older man, and why bother with trick shooting to get him in both parts.

Piano player, with only very brief looks at him, certainly could be Jimmy Durante. Anyone know film title?

Thanks for posting. Helen Morgan's one of my favorites, and very hard to find. Never seen or heard this one before.

Utterly unique, a natural talent who couldn't make a false move if she tried. Heartbreaking voice, indelible personality. Lovely to see.

That's Charles Ruggles, character actor with the drink in his hand! Jimmy Durante a young 37 looks great in this video!

The man gawking at Helen before she sings is none other than Jimmy Durante, in one of his first film appearances.
