GRACIE ALLEN plays the UKULELE

Here's a vintage treat video: Gracie Allen Plays the Ukulele in this movie clip. Jean from the Berkeley Ukulele Club sent me this little treasure. Enjoy, HU

I have a vintage photo of Gracie Allen playing the Ukulele with a rose stem in her mouth.

  1. I felt the same way about Eleanor Powell this morning as when I was a youngster. Holy cow, that much energy and that much grace don't usually show up in the same package. The whole number was blessed by good choreography and good photography. Nice find, Magic Jeff!

  2. The credit for sharing this goes to Jean E. from the Berkeley Ukulele Club. She found it first and sent me the link. Glen Rose also mentioned to me that he liked this video.
