  • Vitaphone short by Jane Green: Singin' the Blues.

      In June 1928 Jane appeared in a couple of "Vitaphone Varieties" film shorts - "Singin The Blues" and "The Melody Girl". Husband Ron Wilson accompanies Jane on piano in both shorts. Only the audio soundtrack from "Singin The Blues" survives today and can be heard on the "Wild Romantic Blues" LP below.

      732: JANE GREEN - Wild Romantic Blues

      The Original Superbatone LP

      [linked image]

      Thirteen tracks, including the soundtrack of Miss Green's Vitaphone short, "Singin' the Blues." A labor of love and work of art, this beautiful production (now a collectors' item) features a lavish 8-page booklet with bio, photos and complete song lyrics; the record is pressed on blue vinyl, with original label art by the great Robert Crumb.
      $20.
       
      Brad, did we discuss Jane's "Singin' the Blues" in the forum? I don't remember. What can you tell us? Do you have an mp3 that you can share with anxious and eager forumites?
