Are You Ready For This?

Georgie Price is a song-writing soda jerk at at a parlor where there's a chorine-waitress dancing on every table. Sylvia Froos is a customer who gets him fired, so she connects him with a producer, and he sings introductions to melodramatic scenes in this bizarre musical short.

Mr. Price was born in 1901 and was performing with Caruso by the time he was six. At the age of 9, he introduced the song "By the Light of the Silvery Moon. By the time he turned adult, he was being compared to Al Jolson and Eddie Cantor, but a dispute with Jacob Shubert caused him to give up show business and start working on Wall Street. He died in 1964.
