Featured review
Spike Jones' Pass the Biscuits, Mirandy was another charming Soundie I watched on YouTube
This was another Soundie I watched on YouTube. In this one, Spike Jones and His City Slickers are gun totin' hillbillies waiting for the other fuedin' family to show up. Del Porter sings about wanting to eat the biscuits that Mirandy always cooks up though maybe it's out of habit since they cause teeth to fall out! Oh, and they're hard enough to use as bullets later on especially on an enemy ship at sea as this "music video" from the '40s ends. This was one of many that played on Panorams (film jukeboxes) at various restaurants, bars, and bus or train stations during the period. Quite corny but still charmingly watchable so on that note, Pass the Biscuits, Mirandy is worth a look.
