Am Schwarzen Freitag 1929 nahm Berlin gerade in Hollywood Lieder für den Film "Puttin’ OnTheRitz" auf, den später auch andere Künstler für einen erfolgreichen Auftritt nutzten.
In seinem aktuellen Musikprogramm spannt Burgart Klauser den Bogen vom US-amerikanischen Jazzstandard Puttin’ OntheRitz über Lustiges von Karl Valentin bis hin zu Tom Waits.
