Nickety Nackety Now Now Now - sung by Chubby Parker - Gennett Electrobeam Record 1927


Playing Next: Wolf Alice - Wednesday
Random Page  /  Random Song


Here is \"Chubby\" Parker singing and strumming on his old time banjo, to one of his big hits of the mid to late 1920's, \"Nickety Nackety Now Now Now\". The record is a 10\" Gennett New Electrobeam\" 78rpm from 1927. Indiana born performer Frederick R. \"Chubby\" Parker was one of the first old time performers to become regionally famous through the power of radio. Parker was a fine singer with a high, clear voice and accompanied himself with deft tenor banjo playing to which he sometimes added harp rack harmonica. Much of his material was from an earlier era - some from the 19th century and included old-time comic songs, minstrel songs and some that sound like they originated in the British music hall. Like many successful Radio and phonograph stars of the mid to late 1920's, he faded into obscurity during the great depression and very little is know about him after that period. The Phonograph is a Columbia Vivatonal model 163 suitcase style crank phonograph from about 1927. This song is probably most recognized by movie fans who remember the famed \"Schoolhouse\" Scene from Alfred Hitchcock's \"The Birds\" as the schoolchildren in the classroom sing a haunting rendition of it, while the Birds begin gathering for their \"Attack\". Beware, listening to this song with its repetitive chorus, can give you a dreaded ear worm that could last for days!!!
