1930 musical act featuring five sisters - The Five Locust Sisters. Interesting period video clip. "Get Out and Get Under the Moon" and "My Pet" are the songs. Harmonizing
The music here is wretched. They aren't singing. They're engaged in acrobatics, something that fascinated the period. They also sing in a very high register which makes the nose bleed. All in all, putrid
They weren't the best looking bunch of girls but it didn't matter back then, the talent an voices mattered, and that's why music was the best back then. Now and days its all about looks and not voices, and thats why we have lackluster singers and no variety like in the old days. You wouldn't see singers that look like The Locusts sisters today. Now you have to be attractive and thin if you want to even get started, looks are first, talent/ability is second, thats why entertainment sucks today.
I love music from this time period... I came here after watching a Boswell Sisters video... and.... I don't like it! I don't like it at all! LOL I think that they are afraid to use their diaphragms!
Proof you don't need to look pretty to produce pretty music.

Always best to evaluate music from the past in the context of its time - not using current standards to evaluate it.
