Eddie Cantor- What Do I Want With Money?

1948

[@fakeman345]

I wanted to let you know--I am a folk singer in the New England area. After watching this video I quickly assembled a collection of all the Eddie Cantor material I could find. I've worked the first part of this song into an acoustic arrangement which I play with regularity (I added a verse for length). I will count Eddie Cantor among my main influences for the remainder of my life. Thank you for introducing me to such a wonderful talent.

Thanks for posting this. I remember watching Joan Davis in ''I Married Joan'' on tv.

Shocked at how great Joan Davis looked. She was beautiful.

Yes, Jack was one of Eddie's closest friends (and that also included George Burns and George Jessel), 'Mendy'. In fact, Eddie's best known TV appearance, outside of his "COLGATE COMEDY HOUR" shows, was his surprise appearance at the end of one of Benny's April 1953 episodes [with guest star Fred Allen]. Eddie had recently recovered from a major heart attack, and the audience's reaction upon seeing him was incredible...

It was well known that the two of them had a very long affair. Even though Cantor alway played the devoted married man
