Music today is nothing but garbage I wasn’t around in the 40s or 50s but looking back at old clips these men had talent I like the older music doo wop classic 60s soul music and I’m only 57 years old once again better than this garbage that’s out today
Unfortunately most of that audience was shipped directly to the South Pacific and never made it home. The Japanese were brutal. The Army knew how to entertain soldiers and made it a top priority. At least they got to see this masterpiece of a performance before they shipped.
Amazing how black people produced such good song, music, acting and dance, had to go thru so much racism and discrimination because white superiorism saw them as a lower class or sad to say, sub human. Thankyou to all who contributed despite the challenges.

This is from the movie "Reveille with Beverly" (1943) A wildly, wonderfully entertaining movie from WWII. Ann Miller becomes a morning disc jockey for soldiers. "Reveille with Beverly" also has Bob Crosby and his Bobcats performing "Big Noise from Winnetka", Duke Ellington Orchestra performing "Take the A Train" on a moving train, Count Basie Orchestra doing "One O'clock Jump", Freddie Slack (with the GREAT Ella Mae Morse) performing "Cow Cow Boogie:, and even Frank Sinatra (in white tie and tails!). ""Reveille with Beverly" - you must see this movie!!
There's so much to this in just under 2.5 minutes. You can watch this repeatedly and focus on a different aspect of their performance. This takes true skill, but they're still having fun!

You have plenty to be proud of, your grandfather was one of the best I’ve ever heard! What an honor it would’ve been for me to have met him, but I will in glory praise God!!! This lineup with brother Freeman was my favorite lineup, they were the absolute best ever in Gospel music. 🙏
