Fantastic - this is what youtube is for

[bigcity233]

GREAT stuff!!!  Love these old Newman soundtracks. He had a long successful career.

[Shatallion]

United Artist as in Fairbanks, Pickford, and Chaplin?

[predlycon]

@Shatallion yup yup. he worked with UA frequently. especially when schenck and goldwyn were there.

[Shatallion]

@predlycon huh! cool thanks! :) 

[RatPfink66]

'nother thing...Does that handwriting read, "Calabrese Orchestra"? As in Lou Calabrese, b/k/a Lou Breese? Lou did form a band in '36 - but it was in Chicago...

[RickC50]

@RatPfink66 The song is "Calabash Pipe" from "Strike Me Pink" (it says Calabash Orchestra on the record). It was sung in the movie by Eddie Cantor and Ethel Merman. Someone has posted the movie clip on You Tube. The music on this You Tube posting is not used in the number performed by Merman and Cantor.

[RickC50]

I'm wondering if it was used as incidental music leading up to the Merman/Cantor performance, used somewhere else in the picture, or wound up on the cutting room floor! But what a fantastic recording!

[Masquerade03]

Absolutely marvelous! We are lucky you share with us this treasure! Thanks!

[roybo1930]

OH! THIS IS FANTASTIC!!! & SO RARE!!! Was a version of this very pritty tune ever issued on a commercial 78? I LOVE IT!!!

[RatPfink66]

@roybo1930 Dunno...a more apt question might be, "Did UA ever put it in a picture?"

[roybo1930]

@RatPfink66 Really! It would be a AWESOME soundtrack tune would`nt it!
