Kitty Kallen (1949) - Kiss Me Sweet

This is taken from the RKO "screenliner" (short) featuring Jan August on piano and Kitty Kallen singing. Found at Oakleigh market (Melbourne, Australia). I paid $95.00 for the professional transfer to digital video. Kitty sang with many big name bands of the time and I believe this is the only 'clip' of Kitty Kallen to be found on the internet - a world Cinemakramp premier.

Yes, there is two other tunes that Jan plays solo on this Super-8 reel. Perhaps I could upload them for you.

Do you have any more of Screenliner? I am Jan Augusts grandson and am looking all over for this. Please let me know thanks!

Great to see her on film at last. Though her voice seems to sound a bit deeper than on record (and the Mercury version of this is great!).

I love this song! The first time I recall hearing it was in a Warner Brothers cartoon and Tweety was singing it.

cinemakramp thanks for down loading this. It is really a great piece honoring one of the most underrated singers of all time. Her 1954 "Little Things Meam A Lot" was the top selling song of the year.She really had a knack for ballots and could interpret a song as good as anybody.
