THE CARTOON CRYPT: Betty Boop in Betty in Blunderland (1934)
Another excellent, surreal Betty Boop cartoon… I love the Jabberwocky in this. The featured song in it, “How Do You Do,” is an altered version of the song “Everyone Says I Love You.” Below is Groucho Marx’s wonderful version of that song from Horse Feathers (1932) (starts at 36 seconds in or so). There are other great versions of that song in Horse Feathers as well… note that you can see the entire movie on YouTube starting here. I’ve exported the music from both movies as mp3’s for your listening pleasure… you can grab those here.
Read more about this cartoon on the Big Cartoon Database here.

Hank Williams – Cold, Cold Heart
Rare footage of Hank Williams on the Kate Smith Evening Hour… this footage includes Cold, Cold Heart and I Can’t Help it if I’m Still In Love With You (with Anita Carter). Before that, Roy Acuff opens with Livin’ on the Mountain, Honey Babe.
Max and Harry Nesbitt: My Baby’s Got Red Hair and Freckles
What a performance…
