[Harp-L] Harmonica Films on TV



For those interested, another harmonica related film will be shown on TCM (Turner Classic Movies) on Tuesday, June 13 at 4:30am EDT. This film, 1945's "Radio Stars On Parade," is not primarily a harmonica film, but does have a short clip of 3 harmonica greats on stage as part of the story line. These 3 are: Charley Leighton, George Fields and Joe Mullendore (Joe Sanns). While the three are playing (all chromatics), a couple of thugs on the run enter the stage area by mistake, and quickly join the trio, pretending to also be playing harmonicas. Glad to have it in my library because of the stature of the three players, even if it is only a very short clip.

And also on TCM, the 1953 film, "Genevieve," will once again be shown on Sunday, June 11 at 1:30am EDT. This is the film for which Larry Adler wrote the score, and plays throughout, though not on screen.
