The 10 minute film won an Academie Award for a short movie. A few years later, in 1950 he assembled another group of great musicians together to film another few clips. These were all musicians who performed worldwide in Norman Granz' Jazz at the Philharmonic. Harry Sweets Edison on trumpet, Lester Young and Flip Phillips on tenors, Phil Harris on trombone with Hank Jones piano, Ray Brown bass and Buddy Rich on drums.

Back Porch Majority - Mighty Mississippi
"The squeaky-clean folk singers, The Back Porch Majority, were not amused by the sexual hijinks that the Scopitone people added in the background of their performance. There was legal action... and shortly after that, Scopitones were no more. It's fun to watch though! "
