Tom you are so right. Harry Roy was a his peak. If the film had been made in Hollywood, Mabel Mercer and Johnny Nitt would have been filmed separately so that they could be cut from the film when shown in the Deep South. There would have been no interaction between Johnny and Harry and in the finale of the number Mabel, who would go on performing for another 40 years, would not have been acknowledged. Thankfully we live in different times….and hopefully they will only get better. Thanks for your comment.
I just found out 5 days ago that Johnny Nitt is my great grandfather!!
Brilliant! Great to see & hear the lovely Mabel Mercer when she was young.
What a great performance!
Great clip! Harry Roy was multi talented.

Minnie the Moochca etc.
I have now put up the lyrics. I’m afraid I don’t know who the composers are.
