This did not earn the Music genre tagged here, hence the "{nm}" in the title of this post. It has one number of Lupe Velez singing and wiggling in a night club, and a portion of Inka-Dinka-Do by JD alone. Don't put any stock in Thelma Todd on the roster; she appears for less than a minute in the beginning of the film.
