Jazz Juke Box II

Following the success of Jazz Juke Box I, George Melly presents another selection of jazz shorts and 'soundies' - the delightful films made for visual juke boxes in the early 40s. He is joined by great jazzman Slim Gaillard, famous for such hits as 'Flat Foot Floogie' and 'Dunkin' Bagel'. Gaillard recalls swing's heyday and its legends - Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Fats Waller, Louis Armstrong and Nat King Cole.
