As long ago as 1941 America s Soundie film company began making promotional music featurettes for the newly-arrived video jukebox. Compiled from those Soundies and other promotional short films from the Forties, along with the rival Snader Telescriptions from the early Fifties, Half-Past Jump Time! is an exhilarating collection of jump and jive classics from those halcyon years. These timeless performances give us a vivid glimpse of that joyful, elegant and innocent decade before rock n roll came along when Swing really was the thing.
