Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Original listing and sheet music here: https://musescore.com/user/36482158/scores/13237120?from=youtube_share "Hunkatin" appears to be a derogatory term for automobile ("hunk of tin"). So why is it the title of this very smooth, well-done dance number? In the tradition of "Too Much Mustard" it's just a funny way of getting some attention. And it apparently worked, as "Hunkatin" was recorded by orchestras on disk in the day and is still performed today. Original score source was from the Charles Templeton Sheet Music Collection at Mississippi State University at this link: https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/cht-sheet-music/2499/ |
