Move over MTV! These original "music videos" are the real thing. Produced for a short tme between 1940 and 1946, Soundies played at roadside bars and cafes on coin-operated jukeboxes with music and film! The SOUNDIES DVD features twenty-four selections and includes patriotic themes from World War II and a collection of "Hillbilly" tunes. The musical selections are great fun to watch as glimpses into our past. The Patriotic Songs include DER FUEHRER'S FACE, ROSIE THE RIVITER, ALL AMERICANS NOW, JOHNNY DOUGHBOY, UNDER THE APPLE TREE, MI LINDA AMOR< V-MAIL FROM A FEMAIL, HITLER KICKS THE BUCKET, HI, NEIGHBOR, WHITE CLIFFS OF DOVER and A LOTTA SCHICKLBRUGER.

Those old enough to remember will appreciate the memories, and those who have never seen a Soundie will be entertained by this bit of musical history.
