"Hooray From Hollywood" From "Hollywood Hotel"
This is the opening number of a 1937 film directed by Busby Berkeley, with Dick Powell as a member of Benny Goodman's band who's going to Hollywood. Goodman is here, as are real-life orchestra members Gene Krupa, Harry James and Frances Langford. But my favorite performer here is trumpeter Ziggy Elman, singing the lead vocal.
