Name That Tune

Post by boneapart »

Can anyone name this tune? Possibly it was created for the commercial, but I'm hoping it's a known tune.

Sounds like a "made-for-TV-commercial" jingle. :idk:

My impression, too. The hokey swing "feel" reminds me somewhat of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.

Makes me think more 1920's than swing era.

Somebody probably did pretty well for writing 4 bars.

That, too. I was cueing into not just the two-beat feel, but the extra "and" hit on 4 in this commercial. I don't believe that was common in 1920s pop/jazz. :idk:
