Melody Magic Johnny Green His Orchestra, 1935

Here is Johnny Green conducting his lush dance orchestra in a medley of four of his own popular compositions. His band singer Marjory Logan and The Tune Twisters (male trio) sing two more Green songs (both with lyrics by James Dyrenforth): What Now and Not Green chastises his second pianist (and arranger), Dave Terry, for infringing on Green s musical territory. With the aid of trick photography, Green, with a wave of his baton, reduces the orchestra to miniature size, then Dave Terry does the same to Green. The film closes with an intricate version of Sweet SueJust You (Victor YoungWill Harris), featuring Green s saxophone section. Directed by Fred Waller. The songs: John W. Green Medley I Cover The Waterfront; I m Yours (Tune Twisters); Body And Soul; I Wanna Be Loved (Orchestra). What Now (Logan and Tune Twisters), Not Bad (Tune Twisters, Marjory Logan, Johnny Green), Sweet SueJust You (Orchestra)
