Thanks to all for the great comments. We've had a short delay while working to keep the bills paid, but are continuing production. Look for this project soon on Kickstarter where we hope to raise enough money to finish this project. We still have a lot of traveling to do to complete more interviews and we need to transfer a lot of great 16mm films to HD video. But we will see it through. Thanks to all for your support - Paul Bean

I forgot what else I was going to say. "Sing A Little Jingle" is one of my favorites...

I'm 52, and have been listening to the Bozzies for nearly 20 years. I feel the music is very unique, and it's known the girls had a lot of influence on upcoming (back then) singers and musicians. I hope to be around long enough to see the Documentary, and would be willing to kick in a little $ towards that endevour.

Thank you so much for this project! I cannot express my excitement in serviceable sincerity. My love for the Boozies has been ever growing over the past couple of years and I have taken each opportunity to introduce them to as many people as possible. Their talent and legacy deserve spotlight just as much now if not more so than during their hay day. Since the first time I heard them sing "Object of my Affection" I felt Connee, Martha and Vet needs to be known to all! Thank You Thank You, Yowza!

I learned about the Boswell Sisters just a few years ago, and I became an instant fan of their harmonies. I really wish you success in completing this documentary.
