Amazing the audience is screaming their heads off. What talent and so on time. Sure it's a faster tempo than normal but it still sounds great and really peppy.
Louis Jordan is too much! What a great tenor sax player and singer. Also his band really Just cooked! Check out The GI Jive.Lyrics are incredible.Thanks, Mike
What a living legend (Louis Jordan) of swing music and GI Jive was the biggest hit of WWII that related to military life. What year was this clip (looks like 1969/70?) and from what show, anyone?
mazinman3 the big bands sort of swept the popular mood into an acceptance of war and underlying 'racket' of war based I would say on imperialism/colonialism.
This is from "The !!!! Beat" taped in Dallas in 1966, hosted by Bill "Hoss" Allen. There are only 26 episodes of the show but they're all gems and feature some of the best R&B, soul, and blues artists of the day. The story goes that Allen was so distraught that the show was canceled that he supposedly went out on a bender, so Otis Redding stood in to MC the final show. He did an excellent job, BTW.
That's no jazz. It is early rock and roll. Watch Big Joe Turner, Roy Brown and Elmore James. They also sang and played R&R. R&R originated in the early 1900s with Pinetop Smith's boogie woogie.
@@ddm1912 it’s a variation of Swing music called Jump Blues. It was the immediate predecessor to Rock and Roll, and directly influenced all of the original Rock artists.
ok, this is some of best footage on you tube, i'm in louis jordan heaven

Love the fast and slow version.

what a fuckin badass
Love this!
Vontade de sair dançando!
Vdd! kk
I know the song was released in 1944 but does anyone know how old this video is? Looks like it was filmed in the 60’s
66'
Is that Freddie King, guitar?
is this slightly faster than it should be?
Cozzi Cat was Jazzin on Sumpin'! Stratospheric.
And possibly a few higher vibrations than it ‘should’ be. Perhaps the thinking was that it made the music more exciting and marketable?
Swing music is supposed to be fast
@@ddm1912Wrong. In the original Louis Jordan recording of this song it was nowhere near this fast.
