Babe Blake's one reel wonder, with composer at the piano!

Introduced by young Jack Benny! Here is \"Babe\" Blake singing the Annette Hanshaw hit, \"Mean to Me\" with the composer Fred Alhert at the piano! Did she make records and sing on the radio? If so I don't know. Maybe she was a flash in the pan. If she sounds like an imitator of Helen Kane, thats because she was! She's got the total baby vamp voice, but kindly left the boop a doops to Helen! Enjoy again!

Benny was a popular MC discovered by MGM scouts who saw him at the Los Angeles Orpheum Theater. He was signed to a one year contract to MC all the proposed musical pictures like the Hollywood Revue. Did you know that the 30s anthem \"Happy Days Are Here Again\" came from a Jack Benny movie? It sure did, written for his next picture, \"Chasing Rainbows\".
