Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from June 7, 2024 Favoriting

MHLee's avatar View MHLee's profile Favoriting

Merrily We Roll Along is a mish-mash of high energy lunacy, reverence, and irreverence for forgotten pop stars, love for Saturday morning cartoons, and exploration of the side of Bandcamp where I seem to be the only one purchasing. Bringing to you the odd and the upbeat from a growing collection of pre-rock novelties, classic and neo-Vaudeville, jug bands, polka, klezmer, and more at the convenient hour of 8-9 AM EST, Merrily We Roll Along starts the day off with a little light-hearted musical tomfoolery cut with an occasional comedy sketch. It's organic, free-range, cheese with the occasional onion thrown in.

There was another woman I could find once but they either got her name wrong in the trial or the song name

Questel is marketed as the Betty Boop girl on this release. B side is Animal Crackers

That R R R (shish boom bah) school cheer riff. Wonder when that started. Sounded just like what I heard in the 60s to the 80s. Don't know how much it has changed in recent years.

I do see there was a Decca release and listening to a 78 rip of the song found on utoob there was no audience response. The USCB link you posted also has no audience response (easy to skip to the end where I thought I heard applause, etc on what you played today.
