about

“Whoopee Hey! Hey!”, Tunes to Cheer In Tumultuous Times,
is Janet Klein & Her Parlor Boys’ 7th CD release and times couldn’t be more ripe for this vibrant and evocative bunch of rare and lively tunes from the 1920s and 1930s. Performed with freshness and zeal these long lost tunes come alive again with timeless perspectives on life’s ups and downs and will surely have listeners musing over parallels with our current state of affairs.

Songs from the 20s and 30s reflect culturally "tumultuous times"- the heady frivolity and sassy wild good times followed by modernistic stylings colored by “The Crash” and the Great Depression that followed. Having come so perilously close to the brink of economic calamity... what better time than now to contemplate the zeitgeist of pre and post Depression America…As Janet likes to say, ‘This music got folks through the Depression, the last time.’

The enchanting and effervescent Ms Klein’s singing on "Whoopee Hey! Hey!" is sweeter than ever and the album is chock full (18 tracks) of rich and bold music and lyrics vivid with heady parlance of the period.
So… Bye Bye Blues
