  • @DjDedan I hope you realize the Marx Brothers were Jewish. They couldn't go to a lot of places either, and they were very vocal about their abhorrence to anything like that. They never changed their names to something safe and non ethnic like some people did and still do. No sugar coating. The Marx Brothers liked a lot of music, and they put a lot of music into their movies, just because they liked it. They didn't care who made it, as long as it was good.

  • With Whitey's Lindy Hoppers dancing. Thanks!

  • This song with "Ivy Anderson" is so upbeat. I feel better after listening to this YouTube recording. Thank You very much, Doug Archer, San Diego

  • <====3

  • This is the most beautiful music i have ever heard

  • Ivie was fantastic. Glad we have clips like this to preserve a record of her talent. Health issues shortened her career and eventually her life.

  • @DjDedan LOL. Urkel comes to mind. xP 

  • @Bandaids4ever lol - some black folk have no rhythm either - believe it or not ;-)

  • @DjDedan Haha. Maybe. I don't got no rhythm, though, so there must be some truth behind it.

  • @bvscfanatic i have to say you are distorting some history here, white folks were constantly exposed to black talent (cotton club comes to mind), it was common practice to allow blacks to perform at white establishments they just couldn't actually by PATRONS of these establishments. This is a great scene but not because of what you say, its great because these guys got talent DESPITE all the obstacles they had to overcome DAILY. It was a terrible time and yet look at the art. no SUGAR COATING.
