“A direct animation film in the style of ‘Color Cry’, based on a drum solo by Gene Krupa. Len Lye made ‘Life’s Musical Minute’ in the hope to persuade the Life magazine to finance similar films as corporate advertising”. (”Len Lye” edited by Jean-Michel Bouhours and Roger Horrocks). Soundtrack music is ‘Golden Wedding’ by Woody Herman. The drummer on this track is Frank Carlson.
