Jumpin Jive - Cab Calloway and the Nicholas Brothers

Here's a clip from the movie "Stormy Weather" (1943) featuring Cab Calloway and his orchestra performing "Jumpin Jive". After awhile they let the Nicholas Brothers jump in and lend their feet to the action.

In a way this makes me kinda sad. Although this performance was absolutely stunning, I can only imagine what these guys had to go trough everyday in their lives. And still they smile like the world is a good place. :(

I'd like to know who the 62 Idiots are that don't like this.

These two fellas seem to have gone on producing this sort of excellent qualility way in to their 50s, truley awesome to watch the enjoyment in their faces as they performed also lived to a ripe old age proving that tapping must be the source of life?!

Cab Calloway: can even turn an exit for the main act into the classiest thing ever seen.

The Nicholas Brothers are absolutely amazing to watch nobody performs like Black People we are the absolute best even though people hate us they still watch in marvel over our abilities. And they wish they could do the same but can't all they can do is wish and watch and enjoy what they see to bad the world is full of hate and jealousy for us.
