What's the name of the song? I convinced all my co workers to run around with a mop around the shop mopping the floor with this song blasting on the radio once I find the full song. I work at a woodworking shop and the shop hasn't been mopped in 5 years!
I thought I'd heard about everything Al Jolson recorded, but I never hear this one! Nice! Added it to my Al Jolson Pinterest Board!! By the way, I'd sure love to have victrola ( I think that's what they called it or is that the term for the later ones?)
Hey there! Yes, Victrola is the term for the later models manufactured by the Victor company. The machine in this video is an early custom built Victor circa 1906.
@@xshi6649 Thanks for the reply! I thought so. I remember as a child going down to the basement and playing records on the victrola they had! Fond memories!!
"Song of Four Seasons" is the name of the song. It's a famous Chinese song from the 30s. It's singing about a girl who's forced to leave her hometown and separate from her lover due to war. The lyrics depict her homesickness, loyalty to her lover, and her support for the war effort through the depiction of the four seasons(spring, summer, fall, and winter).
