I have seen many versions of this classic novelty tune but this
is the most humorous.
Many wonderful things can and should be said about Spike
Jones and His City Slickers, the musicianship was excellent,
their stage presence was top notch, as was the material.
To me the really big thing that I notice is the timing.
So many things could go wrong, but don’t!
They are very much in tune with each other.
Zany bordering on silly but highly entertaining.
This was done in 1945. almost eighty years ago.
Way ahead of it’s time…
