This was wonderful.These men were singing before my mother was born, and now I'm older than they were when some of them died... and yet their music lives on through the magic of RUclips with new followers..What an oustanding family they were and in this video, I got to hear Herbert Sing lead for the very first time, what a joy! if you listen to Harry talk when he's explaining their fathers' retirement, you can see who Frank Sinatra modelled himself on...
I am 83 years old, my dad loved, and listened to the Mills brothers, he also played the harmonica, Well enough to be on stage, He told me "Son this is real music, never leave it, it will be around forever."
Comes to Episode #2. No one can deny the multi talented of The Mills Brothers, and their ambitious plans. My admiration and respect. Truly deserved the recognition, respect and all their successes. Thank you for the post. Have a nice day🙂everyone.
6:09 - 7:46 What an absolutely beautiful scene, to see the brothers back, but this time, with dad performing, and the very talented base guitarist (that interview gig must have been impossible to pass). Thank you so much for this absolute gem, Bruno.
What can I say, The Mills Brothers are so Amazingly Awesome. What talent What Joy!!! Thanks guys, I remember How Dean Martin Loved you, having you on his Show, having every record, album, loved you Sang with you. ❤❤❤💥
The hair stood up on the back of my neck when Herb stepped up to the mic to sing lead. That is the first and only time I’ve seen him step up and I’m 65. My father was a big fan and we had several of their albums so I grew up listening to these amazing men.
Been listening to them for about 30 years now and also the Delta Rhythm Boys. Thank you so much for the share! Talk about goin' down the memory lane..!
Look, I mean this in the nicest most constructive way poss,,,, this documentary blowwwws. Snooze fest. This group was sooooo fire. Their earliest stuff is straight up sexy, their harmony and skill and humor and wit and......energy, and mood...chills. This doc... falls short dudeee. Harryyyy I’m such a fan girl for you 😩❤️❤️❤️
Gia, I dont think the Ted Mills in Cornelius was Ted Wizard Mills. That Ted Mills was a Broadway producer and died in 2003. I'm pretty sure Ted Mills of Blue Magic hailed from Philly and was born around 1952. He was performing up until 2019. 2016 he had reunited with Keith and Wendell and toured .going to Africa to perform.
Gia: Somehow, in some way, I don't think Peter did. Too late to ask him, he's probably playing pol with Uncle Herb, up there as we speak. (It's Jan here, Peter's unavailable).
Tech was not what it is nowadays but it's great that we have at least some way of hearing these wonderful musical pioneers. To hear them with today's fidelity would bring me to tears, I'm sure.

I'm 63 years... My uncle and dad were big mills brothers fans... Today I always listen to the mills brothers. Then family song is "Till Then"...
They should make These Beautiful Men a Brand New Documentary to Honor their lives and contributions to music and bringing so many joy

What can I say,
The Mills Brothers are so
Amazingly Awesome.
What talent What
Joy!!! Thanks guys, I remember
How Dean Martin
Loved you, having you on his
Show, having every record, album, loved you
Sang with you.
❤❤❤💥
Absolute, utter perfection. We still are not worthy.
Couldn't agree more with you!
The Mills Brothers were so down to earth and classy and talented. What an amazing family! Thanks for posting this Bruno.
Herb , singing lead! WOW! Love it.
Wow, what great voices and style.....unmatched!
I love when Herbert Mills sings.
I love the early ones when their brother, the guitarist to the right was still alive. That was the early 30s and he died far too soon.
@@petertaylor3600they were four brothers all singing, and the guitarist was someone else.

Beyond excellent!!!
My favourite singing group ,thanks to dad having their old 78's they could sing anything that was offered to them
Really regret not saving my grandparent's records of them. Never even gave them a listen til past few years.
Thank you for this.
My grandfather introduced me to the Mills Bros, and I've been a fan for about 40 years, now.
Never knew most of their story.
Beautiful human beings godsend harmonious musically 🎼 ❤
I wish Hebert did more solos..beautiful tenor voice...
the best!!!
Pure velvet
Uno de los mejores grupos que he escuchado y siempre en high level
A friend sent this to me a few years ago on a video. It was .....im out of words. I was and
Sing it Herbert! So much talent!
My mum loved the Mills brothers then the Inkspots x
This video really threw me off looking at them in their latter years... Especially Harry with him always being the larger one then he was the thinnest
The best
Otherwise I've dreamed of a show about The Mills Bros.
Donald is my Hero He is the Best singer in the world and the close second and third are Harry and Herb

Herb could sing👏
They all could.
❤😂
The Paper Doll sequence with the doll figure dancing. Could that be Dorothy Dandridge? The time would be right for her at the age she was.
Her name is written on the photo.
@Gia Monette' The sort of song an Uncle Herb loved to sing to their little nieces/nephews. Good for crooning. He'd be pleased to know you remember.
It is, I'm sure. She used to do things like this at the time.

Till Then
The most
The first
Of
Doowoop harmony
Is it me or is audio wretched, horrible and any other adjective I can't think of
Tech was not what it is nowadays but it's great that we have at least some way of hearing these wonderful musical pioneers.
To hear them with today's fidelity would bring me to tears, I'm sure.
Yeah no it’s not just the audio on the old recordings, the entire video is driving me insane
Well we knew harry and don could!
The bouncing ball bro sing along
