Manhattan Merry-Go-Round Movie Review 1937

One of the movies where a corrupt boss--in this case a record producer--threatens a bunch of good people as a pretense for a plot when the movie simply serves as a showcase for stars. Features many singing stars of the '30s ("where have you gone Cab Calloway?") plus Joltin' Joe, who ended up having a hit-streak in another genre.
