These "Soundies" were processed in reverse images to be played in "Panoram" film jukeboxes that projected these brief musical numbers from a 16mm projector at the bottom of the cabinet into a tilted mirror, just below a screen in front that reflected the correct image. Sounds complicated, but it was the only way the film could be shown in those machines. "Gotta Be This Or That" was a big hit for Benny Goodman's band in '45.

@fromthesidelines 1945! Thanks for telling the year. I also thought it was from the 1940s. Perhaps the movies can put up clips of different decades. 1 or 2 clips after the trailers before the actual movie. Youngsters will then appreciate them even without knowing the names of the performers. Movies from this decade were full of love!

yeah, I don't even think a lefty would have a piano restrung with high keys on the left.

Thank you rockinhillbillies for posting this swingin' clip!!!
Thank you June Barton for your good voice, attractive presentation, and swingin' personality!!! Great job selling the song!!!

Wasnt the sound normally out of sync on soundies if run through a conventional projector??

This, incidentally, was filmed in 1945.

Reminds my of my mom dancing in the kitchen...I forgot that song ...until yesterday when a dear friend sent it to me...

Thank you for Posting!

When you say an average singer you mean average for her time. Still considerably better than what we have now.

Ya know, you'd think that they would flip these films around when they released them on DVD.
It's a little confusing to watch everyone playing
left handed - and now for your dancing pleasure
EMIL COLEMAN AND HIS LEFT HANDERS - LOL

Check it in a mirror; the entire clip is flopped left to right. (Either that or it's the world's only all-lefties band.) Looks to me like the drum head say "Emil Coleman" and also has initials "PR."
