THE MILLS BROTHERS 1970's interview. Tiger Rag & Bye Bye Blackbird 

Here's a delightful clip by Ohio's world-famous and legendary Mills Brothers from an old betamax tape I found in my garage. The Brothers are joined by a then-famous television talk show host to sing one of their biggest hits and offer an up-temp version of Bye Bye Black Bird and Hold That Tiger...they even add their own voices as musical instruments! The brothers are in their usually wonderful harmonic form. By this time (the mid-1970's), brother Harry (far right) was nearly blind with diabetes side effects. The group recorded almost constantly since their debut in the late 1920's and toured from the 1970's on with other artists like Gisele MacKenzie, Kay Starr, Patti Page, Frankie Laine, etc.
