[78-L] Paramount on Parade theme

[Michael Biel]

I now do realize it.  My question really is about Elsie Janis and the
Paramount on Parade theme, as to what her role was -- did she perform or
record it?  By the way, that Atkins album did not divide the songs
played to Paramount and WB.  Most of them were neither.

Cantor was the co-writer for "Merrily We Roll Along." Friend and
Franklin wrote "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down." I have the sheet music
for both songs - in fact, I'm using them in a songbook folio of music
from Warner Bros. cartoons that will be coming out in August.
