I'm Just Wild About Animal Crackers

This is one of my first demo recordings of the new Robert Morton Opus 2401 "Empress" organ from Melotone Sound Productions:

The tune is “I’m Just Wild About Animal Crackers” from 1926. It is a wild up-tempo song that is a lot of fun to play. I give the non-tremmed sounds a chance to solo on the verse and then feature the various sound effects on the organ in the subsequent chorus. You will notice the obvious use of “Animal Crackers in My Soup” to change keys before the last chorus. A subtler quote is the intro, which comes from “Hooray for Captain Spaulding.” The connection: this was the big hit from the Marx Brothers show “Animal Crackers.”
