Peg Leg Pete, the Pirate

Don Kennelly, dressed like a small boy's idea of a pirate, sings about how dead men tell no tales, while his all-girl crew dangle from the lines and dance around him in this silly soundie.

Soundies were short films, about three minutes in length. The were meant to be played on a machine called a Mills Panoram, a video jukebox that was typically to be found in bars, lounges, and similar venues. You put a dime in and got a performance from the ten on the machine. The movies would be changed weekly, and from 1940 through 1946, Mills and other companies produced more than two thousand soundies.

I liked it a lot, because men, after all, are still small boys.
