This short (11 Minutes) opens with Martin Block seated at a desk ostensibly sending out a radio broadcast with guests Ray Noble and Buddy Clark. Initially, only Ray Noble, the Bandleader is present and Block does a brief interview with Ray which culminates with Block asking Noble to play "I'll Dance at your Wedding" on the piano. The song commences with Ray Noble doing a solo on the piano, but then the action moves to Ray's Orchestra doing the middle of the number and then concludes with Ray's Piano solo. By the end of the song, the other guest, Buddy Clark arrives and is interviewed. The second song performed was a composition by Ray himself, and it is entitled "Good Night, Sweetheart." The scene shifts to a park where Buddy Clark is seated on a bench and a beautiful girl comes walking by. Buddy falls into step beside her and she attempts to ignore his good-natured advances. Then he begins serenading her with the song "Linda" which he appears to be making up on the spot. By the time he has walked the girl to her door, she has warmed up to him and agrees to meet him for a date. The final song of the short is performed by Ray Noble and his Orchestra and it is entitled "Seranade." This short was produced in 1948, and sadly, Buddy Clark was killed the following year in a plane crash in California at the age of 37.
