That he sings? If I were to say probably rhapsody in blue, with the song S w a n e e, that would maybe be correct right? |

"There's a Rainbow 'Round My Shoulder"-- from THE SINGING FOOL
and
"Let Me Sing And I'll Be Happy" from MAMMY
(I don't recall him singing "Avalon" in any film, remembering just a recording of it)

Go Into Your Dance 1935, with "She's a Latin from Manhattan" and "About a Quarter to Nine", maybe not the most famous of his songs, I mainly remember them because of an old vinyl LP with songs from old Warner musicals I used to have.

Go Into Your Dance 1935, with "She's a Latin from Manhattan" and "About a Quarter to Nine", maybe not the most famous of his songs, I mainly remember them because of an old vinyl LP with songs from old Warner musicals I used to have. I'm very fond of "About A Quarter To Nine." It's just the sort of catchy Warren/Dubin number Jolson did best; bright and bouncy, with room for his Vaudeville-esque vocal flourishes, and he puts it across with a relaxed charm that goes down easier than his sometime tendency to oversell. Starting off on a modest scale that showcases Jolson, it shortly develops into the kind of production number that studios like Warners tossed off routinely during the classic era, as dozens of tapping, tuxedoed chorus boys are joined by Ruby Keeler for her turn in the spotlight in this, her only onscreen teaming with hubby Al. Every time I see it, I find myself humming the song for hours afterward. |
