7:58 - Wow, Faye Adams is still alive, which would make her 100/101. This is such great news. I sincerely hope that this beautiful lady and artist is very well and happy. That really made my day.
I had a few friends jammed in my car, mainly Pacific Islander's, who would only listen to modern R&B. We were listening to some so called R&B, so I played a cd with R&B from the 50s. The look on their faces was fantastic, it was totally beyond their imagination. And I was laughing about the crap they loved.
What a treat to watch Sarah Vaughan
W- H -A- T!!!!!!!! AND WOW!!!! I RAN ACROSS THESE BEAUTIFUL OLD MOVIES AND I'VE WATCHED THEM FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE FROM PORGY AND BESS TO GOSPEL IN COLONUS AND WHAT A T-R-E-A-T TO SEE AND KNOW WHO PAVED THE WAY FOR COMEDY, SINGING, AND DANCING!!!!!!😂😂😂!!!!
THANK YOU. UTTERLY ASTONISHING! The power of these performances leaves me...speechless!
Awesome collection of artists and performances but I'm here for Sarah ❤
PHENOMENAL footage !! Much of this strata of entertainment will never be matched - and certainly not surpassed . . . Sarah Vaughan is forever the Queen of range, pitch, nuance, comprehension of th material
Yes. Sarah Vaughn was definitely a Jazz legend. Just like Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald.
Yessssss!!
Well said!
I love this music. These were real musicians who didn't have to use computers like today to enhance their music.
If we were left alone , think what would be today. Born talent.
Cab and Basie were fun -I had my guitar in my hands and i couldn't help falling in. And Judge was sooo YOUNG!
Marvelous ,Great role model for anyone ! What a great tribute to our AMERICAN OF EVERYONE OF ANY COLOR
Truly mist all of this real talent!
Billy Bailey did some mooning walking at the end of his tap dancing routine; this was also done b4 Michael Jackson was born; truly something I was also unaware of.

There is a 1935 video on RUclips with the Mills Brothers featuring a dancer breakdancing.
I thought I was tripping, he definitely was moonwalking.
Thanks for the upload! I have this on an old obsolete videotape I bought in the 1990s and miss watching it, but now it’s in my RUclips favorites. What a slice of classic American culture !

Wow Nat King Cole sings of Trinidad where I am from. Sounds so wonderful!!!! This is way before I was ever dreamed to be born. I heard he visited Trinidad years before my time.
Si
Faye Adams is still alive and lives in Newark NJ. She’s 93 yo
WOW!!! That Voice.
What a range!
Truly a Blessing!!! Got To give God the glory
My Mother and Father knew her
One of my alltime favorite videos and, being reared by my grandparents, I am familiar with every artist showcased. Brings back such fond memories of my "parents"(grandparents). @ReelBlack not gonna lie, you got me crying atp... I GOTTA share this with my PawPaw's children
🤜🏾❤️🤛🏾
I wish life could roll back to the more simple times of the 50s. Back when things made more sense, people had class, style, respect, and people didn't get into trouble unless they asked for it. The music was the greatest, I really dig that sound daddy O, it's really swing.
A time when WHITE ONLY signs everywhere???
The talent is fantastic of that era.
Thank you, sincerely, Reelblack One. This is like gold. So uplifting.
HI GOD BLESS...
I HEARED HIM SAY BOO'D UP OR DOES SHE SAY "BOOD UP" BUT HERE WE SEE SHE WAS NOT THE FIRST ONE TO SAY THAT EXPRESSION. WHAT A LESSON IN MUSIC THIS EAS FOR ME.
This channel is a MUST for the black community...so important..
🤜🏾🤛🏾
Thanks
Cuando el arte musical era respetado su estilo su elegancia su lírica
Miss Faye Adam.. Everyday..
She reminds me of Billie Eillish when she says "I'm so in love with you"..
This is fire!
"Don't let the doorknob hit you where the boogeyman bit you.Hahahaha. I love it! "Goodbye." Now I know what to say in polite company. 😀All of them are fantastic, some I'm familiar with but this Martha Davis I never heard of and she's phenomenal in every way. Sadly, though, when I excitedly go to google biographies and/or documentaries on these amazing black entertainers so I can learn more there's none and if there's anything is cursory stuff. Please offer where links whenever possible for people like me who's thirsty for more of this stuff. Played Ms. Davis' song twice because it's so good. I'm sure I'll watch the show again. Thanks for uploading, Keep them coming.
Maravilloso
That Amos Milborn @20:35 is smokin' 🔥
❤❤❤❤❤❤THIS IS REAL ENTERTAINMENT!!! NO NUDITY, NO NEED FOR LANGUAGE JUST PURE LAUGHTER AND MUSIC ALONG WITH SILLY YET WITTY SKITS! These are the times of prime! WE NEED TO GET THIS BACK!!!
Bill Bailey did the moon walk 30 years before Michael!
So did Dick Van Dyke
When it comes to black talent, there is nothing new; everything after that is duplicated.
priceless
Herb Jeffrey's similar to Billy Eckstein warm voice.good stuff.
Very entertaining.
Sounds better than Judy Garland & others from this era. Beautiful ❤️
Me gusta mucho esta música, saludos desde Monterrey
Think what these folks would make of the (c)Rap that passes for Black music today.
Bad bad whiskey made me lose my happy home...,🍷🥂🍺🍾🥃🥃🥃
5:37 My man Milt Buckner - later switched (full-time) to the Hammond B-3 and had a 2nd career. Notice the C-3 behind him.

Bill Bailey Moonwalking.
If I am not mistaken, during Basie's Conversation, at 40:55, that is the great saxophonist Wardell Grey, stepping up to start his solo by quoting his own composition, "Twisted" (ruclips.net/video/WQgxFHR6VxE/видео.html), later made famous with the vocalese version by Lambert, Hendricks & Ross in the late 1950's (ruclips.net/video/HFiAZYnNRyQ/видео.html), and again by Joni Mitchell in the 1970's (ruclips.net/video/4Vmq-DHQRF4/видео.html). I didn't realize Wardell Grey had done a stint with Basie. Interesting that by 1955, in addition to his big band work, Basie was working with a small combo, basically playing the same jump blues style as he did with his big band in the 1930's, but often featuring beboppers. Swingin'! That's Buddy DeFranco on the licorice stick, too. Killer combo.
Sarah Vaughn sounds amazing on her number too. Her phrasing and melodic invention are stunningly beautiful. What a monumental talent.
Hampton's trumpet player in the 2nd chair from the left is a young Quincy Jones. Here is another clip from the same session that shows him more clearly: ruclips.net/video/kjE-lIx5xFw/видео.html. First hired by Hampton in 1953 at age 15, he was kicked off the bus by Hampton's wife, who insisted he finish high school. He rejoined the band after graduating, which would place him just about the period when this footage was taken in ~1955.
So cool! Thank you for posting this!
Lindo

Nae bother.
Does anyone else here thinks that these characters remind you of Abbot & Costello?
Yes! Good insight - this is the same comedy style from burlesque shows and before that, vaudeville.
Àpaaa1
13:00 MOONWALK.. MJ STOL IT
if you watch Big Joe with captions you mite find it rather funny? and not very accurate?
Never heard of herb Jeffries. Wonder why? Looks like a DeBarge, doesn't he?
Yes,...very interesting
He was Italian and Sicilian. Not black at all, but he was too dark to get a gig with white bands. He went with black and never looked back. Lived to be 100 something.
@@stevecarlson6462 , true but still hard to believe it was that bad back then. Was Willy the MC Sicilian too ?
He does kind of look like an early ElDebarge. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some inspiration there. Jeffries identified as black and white throughout stages of his life. At this stage of his career, he identified heavily with the Black American community. He later stated that he was mixed-race and multi-ethnic [Irish, Southern Italian (Sicilian), North African, and East African (Ethiopian)]. He was raised by his Irish mother and black stepfather, taking his surname, in Detroit. The 1920 census listed him as mixed. He stated that his father, a Sicilian, passed away in World War I. His acting career began in western films marketed at black audiences. Likewise, his musical career began working with predominantly black bands.
From Herb Jeffries' obituary (he lived to be 100): "Mr. Jeffries’s racial and ethnic identity was itself something of a performance - and a moving target. His mother was white, his father more of a mystery. He told some people that his father was African-American, others that he was mixed race and still others that he was Ethiopian or Sicilian."
The aboard timer prognostically correct because vault exemplarily point beside a useless sneeze. chivalrous, wooden geology
Doo wop invented street corner music
☝️😲 ISRAEL AND MOORISH PEOPLE ARE TRULY NO.1 IN THE WORLD 🌍🇲🇦🤔🎓📖📚
Good singing, but singers should not smoke. The man who sang, Herb Jeffries was smoking a cigarette. That is something he should not have done!
Real class better than this garbage that’s out today I’m only 55 years old
Fantastic!
