It’s Got to Be This or That

This 1940s black-and-white Soundie from Juvenile Jubilee features a jazz swing band on a raised nightclub bandstand, with two pianists below. Saxophonists, violinists, and a trumpeter trade solos, while a female vocalist sings Sunny Skylar’s "Gotta Be This or That." The print is reversed—band logo backward on the bass drum—adding quirky charm to the lively performance. A three-minute burst of swing, it captures the era’s danceable energy with a playful visual twist.
