Favoriting Merrily We Roll Along with MHLee: Playlist from September 13, 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.

One thing I found is a lot of these disney songs have very low quality or boring covers. This was a better on for that song

Fun version of the Davey Crockett song. My brothers & I all had DC "coonskin' hats.

I had one too. I know the song but never saw the origin

It's trying to become the merry go round broke down

It says on the record Featured in Walt Disney Film 'Alice in Wonderland') but I don't remember it sounding remotely like this

Apparently, the singing band is the Hall Johnson Choir... and all black group

Yes, tge Wikipedia page lists the black Crow singers.

Washington and Wallace were the composers?

The thing that I notice now, having listened to a lot of 1940s black quartets, is it's pretty typical of the era. Yes.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:39am
MHLee:

I think it has several things against it. The Crows as drawn and portrayed outside of the song really look like minstrels. It's not a song that Black writers wrote in the jive they use like Fats Waller did... and naming the white crow Jim Crow and using him as the lead...

But it would probably be unremarkable if it was just a 78 without the movie

Fun and cute jive.

Yeah, I found this beatnik snow white parody and had to play it

↳ Song: "I've Got No Strings" by "Company B Jazz Band"
Thought thus was a contemporanious very. Singers and band do that swing thing quite well.

↳ Song: "Sooner or later (you're gonna be comin' around)" ...
This is a great song that apparently was written for Song of the South

The sheet music is about love in the movie it ended up about cooking
