This film is not quite a classic, but it did have one delightful surprise for me.
Iris Colleen Summers, aka Mary Ford, Les Paul's singing partner, is about 20 years old in this film and sings in three songs as one of the Sunshine Girls trio for Jimmy Wakely's band. She has a brief solo in the first song. It was her only film appearance before working with Les Paul.
Les Paul and Mary Ford had numerous top ten hits in the early 1950s, including "How High the Moon" and "Tiger Rag".
Otherwise, this film includes a couple examples of Cliff Nazarro's famous doubletalk and two delightful yodeling songs from Carolina Cotton.
I'd say the music takes a front seat to the comedy here.
