Excellent short rarely seen these days
by llltdesq2002-05-18
9/10

"This is an excellent cartoon with a great score that is not aired on television these days because 1) it has the temerity to be in black and white and 2) Porky imitates Cab Calloway at one point and that's considered offensive, or so some think, anyway. That's a shame, because there's a beautiful caricature of Paul Whiteman as well and it's just a great short all around. Well worth the effort to track down. Highly recommended...."
