- Johnny Otis (1921-2012) was one of the key figures in the development of rhythm & blues and rock'n'roll music. He excelled as a singer, songwriter, musician, arranger, talent scout, disc jockey, producer, author, minister and assemblyman. He hosted a half-hour television program on Los Angeles' KTLA Channel 5 sponsored by Metropolitan Ford. This 1959 videotape, although not ideal in video and audio quality, features Johnny Otis with special guests Lionel Hampton, The Three Tons of Joy featuring Marie Adams, Mel Williams, the Eligibles, Marti Barris and the Johnny Otis Orchestra. Transferred from a VHS tape that I received in 1990.

Remembering Johnny Otis (Ioannis Alexandros Veliotes) today on December 28, the day he was born in 1905, a son of poor Greek immigrants who chose to live his professional and personal life as a member of the African-American community. He wrote, "As a kid I decided that if our society dictated that one had to be black or white, I would be black." His contribution to modern American music was nonpareil as this awesome video proves without a doubt. RIP Johnny, you will never be forgotten.

Lionel Hampton playing with Johnny Otis...the way Otis side straddles his bench. The singing....here was s real King of Rock and Roll
Cj johnny was a true musician ❤❤❤❤
He just loved the music. He had the smarts and business sense to do all his great shows and employ so many acts for such a long time.
The Great Johnny Otis ❤
I remember in thff Ed mid late seventies I was a kid young teen into the oldies and Johnny Otis was one of the djs on KRLA. What I really like about him historically was how he championed so many up and coming or undiscovered artist without trying to rip them off. I knew he was a musician too, but I didn’t know he had such a unique style. And Lionel Hampton on vibraphone is just badass. This is absolutely awesome archival footage. And the interference lines on the tv take me back to the good ol/ bad ol days.
Damn this is FIRE!! That ending!!
I remember in later years, late sixties or early seventies, his broadcasts. The show featured a short theme song that repeated the phrase " Johnny Otis, Johnny Otis... 🎶...."
Uncle Johnny! My father and he were inseparable from their early 20's.Preston Love's Omaha BBQ album, as well as many singles was produced by Johnny.I went to L.A.and played with him on Alto mid eighties.Shugg was back in the group so it was family for me! .
Otis, sadly underrated, was totally instrumental (pun so intended) in Left Coast jazz circles and ‘crossed over’ in marketing and musical terms. Totally solid performers at game. Almost Sullivan-level in L.A. scene.
Son Shuggie was a monster musician too. 👍🙏👍🙏
Hand Jive @ 20:30 -- right after the advertisement with the deluxe flashcards!
This is a great post!
❤Goedemorgen ! Fijne dag Vandaag (30 April Jaar 2024 Tijdstip waarop 07:56 UUR Ochtendvroeg ❤🇳🇱🙏(🌹🇺🇸👋)
Not a false note in this show,…including segue into commercials. Which are homespun but damned effective as well. Top talent all the way around. Oh, to have those old studio tapes!!!

Fascinating story of Greek immigrants' role in the Chicago blues scene.
The price of a new '59 Ford wasn't too bad!
$1895 dollars then would only be about $20K now(2024).

Johnny introduces them as Marie Adams and the Three To three
The Three Tons of Joy
Tom Dooley? That's like being on the PA turnpike at speed and throwing your car into park! Talk about L7 square🤮
Stay with me by Mel Williams was a treat, can't go wrong with Lionel Hampton 👍
L7 -- LOL.
just heard of him unfortunately, had no idea he did that song and was so instrumental in music along with Lionel Hampton. These Ads are a trip and nothing has really changed has it?
Me either 😭😭😭...
Who else is here because of Snatch and the Poontangs?
Cj👍👍
0 down and $47.50 a month for a brand new 59 Ford?
About right! Today's money is $455.00 a month.
That shows you how bad politicians have screwed America up the inflation is so high it can't never be paid off and one day it's going to crash hopefully I'll be gone .,.
And one more thing the cars were made out of all metal steel even the engine now we got plastic and aluminum engines and fiberglass body cars...
spectacular video !! Please, would you be so kind and upload the song Like shortnin 'bread by Johnny Otis, it is impossible to get it here in Argentina !! thank you very very much!!
Johnny, Hamp, Mel and Marie were all great. Just a shame about the terrible ads spoiling the flow of the show.
Yes, unbelievable crap ads integrated into the program.
It was actually very brave in the racist '50s that a local car dealership would support the show. Nat King Cole Show from the same era never found an advertiser at all.
@@jessicasalmonson2466 SO SO RACIST A SHAME
It's funny you say that considering most people including thought Johnny Otis was "black.". He never said that he was Greek. The Nat King Show was a very polished TV show...very classy.

It's a beautiful car, friends, with doors to match!
KInescoped...
No, it was actually videotaped.
Smoldering
Is it me, or anytime that white people other than Johnny came on, it was a HUGE DOWNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, and by the way, how many people had 50 bucks to spend on a car loan then? If many, then it was a much better time. Also, just curious what is at the address of this dealership today?
Anyway, this wasn't a kinoscope, it is on video tape which was officially commercialized and available at the end of 1958, President Eisenhower even demonstrated it.
It’s folk music in the style of the Kingston Trio.
@@bb1111116 I get that, but it's not just them. That Barris lady and the Eligibles were just boring drek really.
@@ianarchibald1423
I thought she was good but I could have done without the Illegibles!
Cj👍👍
