Popular music references in Stooges' shorts
Signor Spumoni:
Is there a discussion thread, old or new, about the references to popular music in Stooges' shorts? I always enjoy it when I hear these joking references, such as when I saw "Booby Dupes" today and heard a roundabout reference to a popular song, "Milkman, Keep Those Bottles Quiet." Somehow I never noticed that before today.

At the 1:30 mark, "Hey Fishmen!" -- "Keep those records quiet."
Signor Spumoni:
Exactly right, Paul Allen! :) Are you a music lover, too?
There are so many more, if anyone's interested.

My love for music really only goes back as far as the mid-1950's, but it's fun for me to learn of anything associated with the Stooges.
I'm interested in knowing what other songs you have in mind that the 3 Stooges made reference to.
Thanks, Signor Spumoni !

Signor Spumoni:
Hello, Paul Allen - - My apologies for taking so long to get back with another. It's a combination of being busy and other things which forces me to lead a productive life instead of being a Stooge-a-holic, as I'd like. :D
Here's one for you. It's from "All Gummed Up," at the 6:02 mark, spoken by Larry. I don't know how to embed the video the way you did, so here's the link.
It's the way Larry says the line that gave me the song link; I'm embarrassed to admit it took years for me to figure out which song it was.
In case you get busy, too, let me wish you a happy Thanksgiving!
