Hope this hot music takes the edge off the Mittel Europa deep freeze. Keep warm; wear gloves, scarves, hats, and layers of sweaters. Yes, I know I sound like an archetypical Jewish mother, but so be it. And here it remains unseasonably warm...
Another delightful combination of great music and images - love the eton crops and 'mannish girls' with a fancy flivver at 2.08 and the poster for 'College Love' is wonderful - a kind of twenties 'Animal House'(9and is that Stephen Furst/Kent Dorfman's Grandfather at the far right?)
Hello Grzegorz - Ohio State University - my Alma Matter - the so called "no-nonsense party school" - has a classical Big Ten campus - with tons of campus traditions which change with every graduating class. Each time I visit the gigantic campus - a "mini" city of a hundred thousand students - it always reminds me of those - crazy, wonderful years which went by entirely too fast! Have a super great weekend!!!
college..rah, rah, rah.... i think the college craze is what many people think of when thinking about the twenties...raccoon coats and galoshes and a tin lizzy with a rumble seat...hi jinx and hip flasks. caught the spirit with this great collegiate ditty. love the pics. thanks for re-creating the spirit of the times in song and image. take care and stay warm.
@bill3murr In 1920s, shortly after atrocities of the Great War, young people were bringing to the society a new hope and joy of life. Nobody yet was aware of horrors that were hidden behind the names of Adolf Hitler or Joseph Stalin. People believed, all the world can do is only be better now. Happy college life among all those cute "problems" who is dating who or which hat to put on tonight for a party made an ideal model for imagining such soon-to-come "paradise on earth".
So great to hear this alternative version!
