I was a dubbing recordist at MGM in the early ’80’s. While I was there I got work on the first restorations and re-mixes of their films starting with “Rose Marie.” My boss, Norm Jost, could not believe someone as young as I was (I was 21 at the time) knew these films. So I sang a few tunes, and really surprised him by demonstrating the ability to quote most of the dialog from “Naughty Marietta,” a feat I can still do today.

In 1980, all 8 of the films Nelson did with Jeanette for VHS. I don’t know if they all made it to DVD.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know I enjoyed your website.

Best Regards,
