Roaring Twenties: The High Hatters - Hoosier Hop, 1929
Loading...
Uploaded by 240252 on Oct 8, 2011
The High Hatters conducted by Leonard Joy, with Vocal Refrain by Frank Luther - Hoosier Hop, Fox-Trot from MGM movie "It'a A Great Life", Victor 1929
NOTE: The High Hatters were the in-house band for Victor recording company. Led by Leonard Joy, they made in 1929-31 the series of really hot recordings. "Hoosier Hop" was one of two hits (the other being "I'm Following You") performed by Duncan Sisters in "It's A Great Life" - the early talkie released by MGM in 1929. When "The Broadway Melody" of 1929 proved to be enormous money-maker, the producers decided to film a kind of a "sequel" (in today's term). "It's A Great Life" was also a box-office success, the reason of it partly being, some sections of the movie made in Technicolor - a pure sensation of those days!

@NDrLoR You are right. Fortunately, there's quite a selection of their recordings in You Tube, to choose from. Although, I still have a recording or two that nobody has presented yet.

GRANDE VITA PRIMA DELLA GRANDE CRISI!!

@danilogiotto Yes, it's sad to realize, that really HAPPY music was exactly "la dernier cri" of a "Happy Life" just a minute or two before the explosion of a Great Depression.

Wonderful rhythm! There seem to be no end to the dances they invented in the 20's. I love the painting a la Cadmus with the partying sailors at 2:34. I think they're dancing to this exact music.

@dzheger It's "Silver Slipper" by Waldo Peirce. I also like that painting a lot!
