Roaring 20s' Hot Hit by Johnny Marvin - Magnolia, 1928

[tapp247]

I love music like this & I have a Lillian Gish autographed picture...I'm 28 & think the 1920's must have rocked.

Johny Marvin is my favorite crooner/uker. Love this song, anyone has the lyrics for me?

My Dear Grzegorz,

Love Johnny but

MOST OF ALL I LOVE THE LYRICS...

Take some honey from a bee and mix it up with TNT!!!!!!! LOL....

Merci.

@genia106 Hi Genia! That's what I wanted to ask you about!: what is TNT???

[genia106]

@240252

DYNAMITE!!!!!!!!

[240252]

@genia106 Thanks! Well, a good combination with honey, indeed. And very much in the style of 1920s

[Masquerade03]

Clara Bown and Lillian Gish, what an explosive combination! I do prefer both separately or charming Colleen Moore. Beautiful Marvin performance! Thanks!

[240252]

@Masquerade03 Oh, and some of Imerio Argentina would do! just her voice! And her eyes! But nobody mentions the band. Look what a little clarinet, piano and guitar can do!

[LeRoi715]

oh it is so movingly beautiful! thanks again !

cheers!

@LeRoi715 Hi and thank you! Yes, it's a happy little song which impersonifies the whole of the careless spirit of the Roaring Twenties.

this is a great version of this delightful song. i love hearing the verse and extra chorus. wonderful photos and poster art.... classy "magnolias". thank you.

@bill3murr I think most of us here in this site know "Magnolia" very well - its versions performed by Lou Gold or other excellent bands. I thought, however, what a fun it'd be to know a complete verse! Knowing it changes a little the idea of a tiltle, doesn't it?
