Rito Rio (AKA Dona Drake) and her all girl orchestra with a set of soundie shorts together entitled "Sweet Shoes". I think this was released in 1938, and I cannot find a copy of this full short on RU-vid so thought I would post it (snippets and later version are here).
It opens with RIta Rio and her Orchestra performing "la Cucaracha", and then goes into variety overload.
This followed by the singing quartet "The Norsemen"
And then Anita Jakobi does a turn
Ending with the Four Specs
Very much a music hall and variety style of the time.
