Muscle Beach

"Think like an athlete, cut them apron strings, starve on your own..." This is essentially a very early music video. A vehicle for a 10 minute musical appreciation of the beach. It's all actuality - fit young people using gymnastics apparatus, people sunbathing, kids playing, ice cream, soda pop - all to an accompaniment from Earl Robinson under the gaze of a seagull. At times the lyric is quite observational and witty, but after about four of these nine minutes, it all becomes a bit repetitive. Proof, if it were ever needed, that gym babies were alive and well in the 1940s too!...............
