Lew Hearn, Phyllis Kenny, and chorus sing a swing version of the title song in this 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.
Western Swing was not the most popular genre of recording in America, as it would become in a few years. This undoubtedly explains the comic elements of the performance, with Hearn dressed in an unlikely stage costume.
