Small town electrician Claude L. Dodd (Kenny Baker) sings at the local strawberry festival. He impresses the Mattress Company's owner who hires him to sing in New York City on a radio broadcast sponsored by the company. His friend 'Sniffer' Sears (Frank McHugh) quickly declares himself as Claude's manager and joins him on the trip.
Kenny Baker was a radio favorite at the time although he will never be mine. His style is definitely old fashion crooning. It's not bad, but it's not for me. It did get nominated for best original song. Again, I wouldn't have done it. Otherwise, this is a minor comedy with minor chuckles. It's all very minor and not for me.
