Today's Soundies features Connie Haines and Redd Harper singing "You're a Shot in the Arm". Hal Bourne and His Orchestra provide the music. This was released for Panoram machines in June of 1942.
This is a very catchy song and watching this just makes me love Connie Haines even more. It's no wonder that Redd Harper's apartment contains about 30 framed pictures of her. Did you notice that most of the pictures are the same shot of Connie just duplicated over and over (shown below). I'm always so amazed at the lack of thought and detail that went into the staging these Soundies. On the other hand, I think that's why I enjoy them so much.
Enjoy this fun and bouncy Soundie!
