King of Jazz: Girls of the Group

[chem100]

Yes, this was done in the Will Rogers Follies and it is still done at Radio City at the Christmas Show (with different music of course). Wonderful number.

Whiteman had taste!

I wonder if Tommy Tune (re the almost exact same number in Will Rogers Follies) saw this...

[chem100]

You can see this number with different music in today's Christmas Show at Radio City. I kid you not. It is electrifying.

Interesting, in that the Russell Markert Girls went to New York after this film, and became the Rockettes.

I'm willing to bet the release is waiting on content. The crappy "interlocutor" (there's a word that rightly died with the 20's) is replaced in various foreign versions (a french guy, a german, etc). Of greatest interest is the Hungarian version...hosted by...you guessed it, Bela Lugosi. I'd sell my soul to see that one. He'd buy it, too :)

Its fantastic!!! I wish we could all E-mail Universal and get them to release King Of Jazz on DVD.
