Happy New Year!

On behalf of myself and my family, I want to wish you a very happy and healthy New Year.

We are expecting some great Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy news in 2014…so stay tuned!

In the meantime, watch a wonderful video and musical tribute by Baz (Basil) Nelson on his YouTube Mac&Eddy channel. Baz has done a wonderful job faithfully posting up the music of Nelson and Jeanette. Thank you, Baz! (And thanks also to Di Taylor and the others who have done beautiful colorizations for his videos.)

Today in J/N History

1939 Nelson marries Ann Franklin in Las Vegas, accompanied by his reluctant mother Isabel and Ann's friend Doris Kenyon. Kenyon was a silent film actress and also occasionally co-starred with Nelson in live opera in Los Angeles. Nelson by his own statement had been drinking and one newspaper clipping noted that he was halfway up the aisle before realizing that Doris not Ann was at his side.
