Considering how relentlessly optimistic and upbeat their earlier output had been (How'm I Doin' Hey Hey, I Heard, Tiger Rag, Bugle Call Rag, etc.), the comparative grief and sadness they demonstrate here (not to mention the choice of material) is a painfully obvious reflection of the untimely passing of John Mills Junior the previous year. Ironically, their father had enormous shoes to fill. God bless them for persevering under such horrible circumstances.
From Annapolis, Maryland, the Great Bernard S. Addison (1905 - 1990) is on guitar. He lasted two years with the group and was their most virtuosic accompanist.
We are absolutely enjoying Glimpses-Swing Tease. Nat Gonella and his Georgians, Evelyn Dall and The Mills Brothers. It's a test for swing fans compiled by Sylvia Cummins. Absolutely brilliant 💛💙💛💙💛💙 🥰🏴🇯🇲🕊️🔥✝️

The sound of Angels singing....
Nice sentimental song befitting the unimaginable pain the Mills clan was going through (they had recently lost eldest brother John Mills, Jr.).
It's from an English film called "Sing as you Swing" from 1937

oooooh! We'd love to see it in full. They only showed to us 10 minutes of it. Maybe it's on RUclips/Amazon/eBay

Thank you for posting this clip. Amazing talent from yesteryear.
Beautiful!
This has to be the saddest Mills Brothers video ever made.😔😔😔
The Mills Brothers sing Ellington. Doesn't get much better.
