This is DOPE! Great pre-doo-wop!
Pure genius! We are blessed in that this clip has survived.
This........................is..............................GOLD
My mum used to sing this song a lot
brilliant memories of a happy childhood
Fantastic. Unbeatable version. But, it is a minstrel show, so we have to be cultural sensitive to the context. But an absolutely great rendition.
Yes they are. I just checked. They were on Bing Crosby's Kraft Music Hall show with the John Scott Trotter Orchestra.
Cool music, and I LOVE the scat singing starting at 1:43. Pure comical/musical genius. But it's a shame that they had to use all light-skinned black women to make it "okay" for white audiences.
Jail Mates that were doing time in a Georgia Jail,they spent their time harmonizing! The Warden loved their singing so He had them signed to Columbia!
This is just a great melody, forget the old lyrics or write some new ones. The sound is good.
Was this an actual band? :)
Please do! That kind of archive would be a family treasure!
you could probably have them transferred to DVD now, if you can find a shop with the equipment. I recommend my cousin's place: Allen's Camera in Utah
I like this version on mortion picture,
than releared version.
Fantastic!By the way,are these the same Charioteers that sang with John Scott Trotters orchestra in the 40's? Thanx, for posting!
Soundies were great! Hot dang, how I do miss them!---Malcolm X, 1980, THIS WEEK magazine
