19 minutes of no details
You said mouth full.
I suspected as much with that opening and went to the comments to see if there was actually any meat in the nineteen minutes of video. Thanks for saving me the time.
Right
Thanks. That seems to be this channel’s m.o. now. I’ll skip it😢
Exactly. He rambled saying nothing.
I like the Andrew Sisters but this commentary is so totally ridiculous. Repetitious ad nauseum
You’re saying the same thing differently every 60 seconds for nineteen minutes is annoying as F.
Yes, they were good, they were uplifting to GI’s, they sang in harmony.
This didn’t really tell us much it gave innuendos like was the one sister a lesbian?
Exactly what I thought, yes one was a lesbian .
Maxene was Bisexual, she married her husband Lou Levy and adopted a son Peter and daughter Aleda. She then divorced Lou and had got with her manager Lynda Wells, they were together 13 years and since marriage was out of the question for them, she adopted Lynda and left her as benificary.
I don't see any information regarding her children Peter & Aleda.
@@TheNester. You told us more in one paragraph than that entire video did. It was a total waste. On the other hand, thanks for your feedback.
@@TheNester. From some brief exchanges with Lynda and Patty's foster daughter Pam online. It confirmed what I always thought. Patty, while decent enough, had a couple of controlling husbands that she let run her life. Maxene was the more well-adjusted, Poor Laverne after the act split up started to drink heavily. They tried to reunite in the '60s and did a few performances, but it was too late for Laverne, who died relatively young. The biggest problem was Patty's second husband, Walter Weschler, who always thought Patty was the star and wouldn't stop interfering. Patty sided with him, and Maxene and Laverne merely tolerated him for Patty's sake.
You did not go into detail of what the problems were through the 40s and 50s... no information was given whatsoever. This was total waste!
This is typical of these self-made amateur video producers. They new no training, knowledge on storytelling using film clips, and no real talent for using them.
@@RayPointerChannelAs there are several in depth documentaries on the sisters available on this platform I’ll skip what I really think of your comment. They might even be *new* with information you *knew* too
The sisters were a national treasure 💫💜💜💜🎙️
It is amazing that you have groups like the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, and a few others that hung together for over 50 years.
Ya...So...?
None did their social duties
Clean up after yourselves...CLOWNS!
This was disappointing. Too long with very little detailed information.
More babbling endlessly and nothing said
In 1974 I saw Patty and Maxine in "Over Here" on Broadway. It was a fun show. Several newcomers were in the cast, Donna was played by Marilu Henner and Misfit was played by John Travolta.
Keeps promising to reveal the story and never does
And the secrts!?! What a misleading title.
Rip The Andrew Sisters🙏
My grandmother introduced me to them and the Ink Spots as a little girl in the 1980s my grandmother was born in 1921 so this was so her music.....and I loved them and the Ink Spots truly great music.
What a great memory to have. The biggest female group of all time along with the greatest male group of the first half of the century.
@@KieranSaighir yes it is I am blessed that I remember a lot of my time spent with my grandmother ❤️
Too much of rambling on and not getting on with the story of what drama he says there was even though they were so wholesome and everything.
I always enjoyed the Andrews Sisters performances. I have some of their singles such as; "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" and "Rum And Coca- Cola." I remember their appearance on "The Sammy Davis, Jr. Show" (shortly before LaVerne passed) when they faced off against my all time favorite group, the Supremes.❤😊
That had to interesting.
Same❤❤❤!
Well, ok, most combo groups have personal issues as fame and career move along the paths. And if they're siblings, it's even more emotionally fraught. But they survived as a group for decades and gave the public their wonderful musical stylings and personalities. Isn't that something to celebrate, too?
Andrews Sisters fan here! Rum and Coca Cola is a fave, and I have an original Decca 78 of this.
This old timer smiles and wonders if you still have a 78 record player that works? And even if you do, do you still play that record? I'm laughing because I still have a few thousand records (78s, 45s, and LPs ... not to mention CDs) and haven't played any of them in 25 years. Somewhere in the late 90s (I think) I transfer about 80% of those songs onto my computer as MP3s and now I rarely play any of them. Time has surely passed us by, my friend.
Maxine Andrews had a Lesbian relationship with her manager, Lynda Wells, and adopted her. It was the only way Maxene could legally protect her lover. She was estranged from her children at the time of her death and left everything to Lynda Wells. According to a radio interview by Lynda Wells in 2019, Maxene entered a thirteen-year relationship with a woman and later Wells became Maxene’s life partner.
Who gives a shit.
I though Laverne was the lesbian.
frothy flim-flam
A very nice term I'll use in the future for this TH-camCrap!
Martin Melcher married Patty in 1947 and they divorced in 1950. He married Doris Day in 1951. When he died in 1968, Doris found out she was very much in debt and was surprised she was contracted to do the TV show.
How did they "Pave the Way for R&B" ?
6 minutes in and nothing said yet
Spoiler alert! He never does say anything of substance!
Hope you're not holding your breath ...
This would be a hard act to keep together and have a private life. Styles change. What follows is heartbreak. But they had tremendous success for a very long time with many iconic recordings. I lived in one of their homes in Rancho Mirage, Calif on a little street called Andrew's Circle. Patti's home had an indoor/outdoor pool, but it lied in ruin, abandoned and in disrepair. Nothing lasts.
I discovered them through Bette Midler' s rendition of Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy. Great harmonies.
I washed not born in the thirtys or fourtys I was born in the end of the fifties and ever Satu arfternoon there would be a movie on with the Andrew sisters in it I got to know all there songs and absolutley loved them my mum and dad one year gave me an Andrews record and I an love it I still have it there music and dance was so wonderful I am so happy that I got to see the movies that they were in I really wish that the tv stations would play the movies again ❤
I didn't know their father was Greek.
Nor did I.
1:38 Harriet Hilliard was Ricky nelson's mother.
Ooooo. And she was also Ozzie's wife and David's mom and..Oh yeah, Ozzie was a bandleader and Harriet was a band singer and both of them also were in a couple of movies....hahahahaha.
Nice presentation and old photos but no 'sensational' reveals. Quarrels and differences among siblings and team mates is not at all uncommon. I'll stick with just enjoying their music. Thanks for all your high quality video productions.
There were actually only two sisters, the older brother had no problem helping them out..🍻
Sorry but this one is so boring for you to disclose their "secrets"🤦🏼♀️
What isn't being taken into account here is this. Consider: The most popular names of the world in 1953 were singers; not actors, actresses, not Hollywood or Broadway. Names like Patti Page, Joni James, Rosemary Clooney, Dinah Shore, Jo Stafford, Doris Day, Perry Como, Eddie Fisher, Frankie Laine, Guy Mitchell, etc etc etc... And that popularity which began in the mid 40's crashed a year later when Rock and Roll was born. By 1955 those big name stars who always had smash hits, were barely relevant. The Andrews Sisters were no longer producing hit after hit in the early 50's and I suspect Patti thought a break would tweak her career. It might have had it been a few years earlier, but by the time of the break up, the advent of R&R didn't give her a chance.
You could get to the point much quicker. Repeating the same things over and over to make the video longer is very annoying.
Human beings suck and family are the absolute worst, i've been more damaged by my own family than all the treacherous strangers i've crossed paths with throughout my entire life....thus far!!
Man. A full ten minutes before the dirt starts to be shoveled? One of them left? An ill-advised money grab?
This goes around in circles endlessly.
Worse than having to click click click through...
In the end, it could have taken 3 minutes.
Their tune "Rum and Coca Cola" was an early calypso tinged song, long before the music genre went mainstream.
There music helped Win a War!!
they were a great moral buster during the time of World War two.
Patty was married to Martin Melcher? he's the one that stole all Doris Day's money.
The Andrews Sisters did NOT pave the way for R&B genre. Please do more research!
Oh, you don't remember? There was The Moonglows, Five Keys, Eldorados, The Ravens, The Orioles, Lillian Leech and The Mellows, The Baltineers, The Crickets (black), The Cadillacs, The Flamingos, The Hearts (You great big lump of sugar, you) and...tada, The Andrews Sisters. Yeah, right!
Back in her heyday, Christina Aguilera did her own slightly racy version of "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy". It was a cute video.
Bette Midler
Wow, way back then, hah?🤣
A waste of time. No 'insight' to the 'greed' whatsoever.
What greed? He didn't even explain the break up. It simply could have occurred because they were no longer the big name they had been. By 1950 much more popular names in the singing world were Patti Page, Perry Como, Tony Bennett, Doris Day, Rosemary Clooney and dozens more. It's my guess Patti Andrews (who was the lead) was hoping that a split might bring her back to prominence. She did have a couple of hits, but by then Rock & Roll was taking over the music scene.
Very interesting! sure they weren't goody too shoes.
Where was the music?
The Boswell Sisters were 10 years ahead if them, and more creative!
Which was the lesbisn??
"We're diving deep into the Andrews Sisters' untold secrets ..." No, you're not.
Did you actually use (at 4:49) the phrase, "sexual freaks" to describe some of their fans?!??! How incredible insensitive and offensive!!!!!
If you are looking for drama there is NONE here…turn to The Young and Restless on your local CBS stations Monday-Friday 😁
Oooooweeee Ikyfl @ 2:04. They did not create/pave the way for rhythm and blues (R&B)!
Get to the point, Stop waffling about.
Patti Andrews may have been talked into going solo... but because her voice might have been weak ( the same scenario with Sinatra)
which could've been the reason for the demise of her solo career
R& B did not start with the A sisters...
That wasn't the only absurdity - the clip itself was the biggest!!!
Holy moly 😱
.. We didn’t know what we were looking at 🎪🤡
Whoa men 🔥
Enough with the forever Intro.
An interesting tidbit...
They all switched names. They each preferred the other's name.
Crazy.
Huh? Is that what you consider sarcasm?
Solo worked for Diana Ross or Cher.
All of the Andrews Sisters wore anklets. I loved it. So sexy. . .
Patty was a #1 lifepath in numerology
Melodic harmony eh
How does someone say the same thing over and over for 20 min and still not manage to say anything about what happened??? What a waste of my time.
He is the chairman of the repetition association, so what can one expect more?
Good grief! I’ll never get these 5 minutes back. What a waste of time.
Ah you had nothing to do anyway, admit it. LOL.
Lack of social direction!?! No such luck.
Traumer of combat? Don't you mean trauma instead?
And Lake Ta hoe instead of Taho! Lol
Rhythm and blues??? You damn liar!!!!!
🎯🎯 Right! I caught that too.
Sisters ALWAYS will feud
I watched this video because I love the Andrews Sisters, but it could have been presented in five minutes or less. Beyond wordy, with a paucity of of information related to the title, it was frustrating and annoying to watch. No more Age of Vintage videos for me - one and done!
They sung with a clean vibe but when you listen to those old songs they're kinda raunchy they depend on the innocence of most Americans to not hear what is so obvious to the modern ear
Don't bother listening to this - it's 20 minutes of nothing but "they had secrets" and "they had issues". that's literally it. No details, no stories, nothing.
Anyone disappointed by this video should read “Swing It!: The Andrews Sisters Story”.
It would have been nice if you told us if this is a book, an article, or something altogether different.
So much BS... so little time ... They had absolutely NOTHING to do with introducing R&B ....🙄🙄🙄
Endlessly repetitive, and NO MUSIC!
I recall when in my '20s, I had a crazy neighbor in my apartment building. He was a raging alcoholic, and would go on alcoholic benders. He told me about one of his alcoholic hallucinations, in which he saw the Andrews sisters singing and dancing. 😄
TRES Cool
Sigh* Great writers know that before you go publication, you edit and then edit again. Way too much fluff and repetition and not enough content here. This video could have been done and dusted in less than five minutes. Managed to struggle through to 15.33, but finally called it on wasting any more time. Such a shame.
Video balloon bread
What a bunch of crap.
12 mins into the video and you just keep repeating the preamble . No facts given whatsoever . What a scam
What a load of garbage!!
Well, they sure made Bing Crosby sound good.
I generally enjoy this channel, but this video is repetitive and badly needs some brutal editing.
Oh look, another AI-powered excessive in insufferable verbosity coupled with an utter dearth of any insights whatsoever. None. Zero. Zilch. Nada. I’m really growing to hate AI
Another worthless upload.
Fine, but Brits just can't pronounce "boogie."
Yes, a waste of time watching this.
I gave up after the 3 min. Mark. Constant teasing by the narrator. Promises he is going to give you the full titillating skinny on the sisters, but by the 3 minutes, nothing! Just more annoying teasing and repeating. Dude, learn to tell a story!
You were so right when you said there was far more going on underneath ! ...... At the beginning where they are dancing in uniform ....you can see their dingle dangles jumping between their legs !
Nasty 🤢
So bland. I expect a deep dive. It was more of an outline than a documentary.
what a heap of waffle for a video, thid guy really lies his own voice
Much before my time
Terrible. Waste of time. Not one detail or one song.
So disappointing!!!!! Waffles on for over 6 minutes before starting information. Just make the video 6 minutes shorter!
Rambling unorganized repetitive. Keeps talking about revealing secrets and so on but never does.
What a boring commentary. I've had more interesting times listening to paint dry...
Sorry to say it, but gosh these three girls were homely. Not a pageant winner among them.
😂😂😂😂 "Paving the way to what would become R & B". 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
