Pure talent! Absolutely love Dean Martin but the Mills brothers are up there with him especially Harry who I believe Dean emulated. I was definitely born in the wrong decade and wish I could have seen these guys playing live! Thank you for uploading this
Agree, we will never see their like again. There may be significant groupings ahead but I don't see then having the history and impact of Martin and The Mills Brothers.
Wow. The talent this group displays - along with the unbridled fun they are clearly having up there on stage together - puts a huge smile on MY face. What happened to us? Yes I KNOW styles and times change, and there is plenty of good talent out there - but the wonderful combination of talent, showmanship, and class we see up on this clip seems to have all but evaporated from the world today. Well, thankfully we have YT now, and can easily reencounter these magical moments.
My Dad always had Martin & and the Mills Brothers playing in our home. I was born in 1950, but loved them just as much as my Dad did who was born in 1913.
+john banks ..john..one of the great things about Dean was he never took himself too seriously, and was always able to make fun of himself..I think after his tough going in the early years, he knew how fortunate he was to have become a superstar for doing something which he loved..I always tell people one of the reasons I like him better than Sinatra, is that with Dean, you could always "hear" the smile in his voice as you listened to him sing, without video....I wish I could have seem just once in night club performance either in the early years with Jerry Lewis, or later as a solo act, because even tho he enjoyed enormous success on TV in the movies, radio etc..he always thought of himself as a "saloon singer"...His longtime Producer, Greg Garrison summed him up best by saying..."Every woman wanted to be with Dean...and every man wanted to BE Dean"...Just a great entertainer...
I totally agree ,,, this will never be again....Dean Martin and the Mills Brothers when they sing brings back a flood of memories and also tears, some people come just once and can never be replaced
Marvellous! A whole show in three fantastic minutes of entertainment. Dino is brilliant and with his idol Harry Warren he pulls out all the stops. This is show business at its finest so thanks for bringing it back to us Deano:)
Dean love the mills brothers when, he was younger he went too see them performing and he pattern his singing ability after thdm and when he had his show it was history
Steubenville is a city in and the county seat of Jefferson County, Ohio, United States. Located along the Ohio River 33 miles from Pittsburgh, it had a population of 18,659 at the 2010 census. The city's name is derived from Fort Steuben, a 1786 fort that sat within the city's current limits and was named for Prussian military officer Baron Friedrich Wilhelm von Steuben
I'll second the comment someone made earlier: Dean said that people always thought he modeled his style after Bing Crosby, and there is an influence there, but he said his real inspiration was Harry Mills.
Dustin Blythe If you'd seen some early film appearances, it's very clear that Harry's histrionics/mannerisms were adopted by Dean Martin--who obviously adored him.
Classic Dino and his Schtick!! Actually many people don't know that his favorite drink of choice was "Apple Juice" NOT Whiskey. He had his cigarette 🚬 and hand on a drink, to give him that Playboy and Bad Boy Imagery but he wasn't an alcoholic. It was ALL an act 🎬 🗣💫💥✔️👍👊💯
Rather frequent guests on Martin's show around this time, I do recall watching this episode; as a young child with my mother(who was probably intrigued by these people's common Ohio birthplaces).

Clip is 50 years old and is still better than most shows on TV today.
SPOT ON.

What was and will never be again . We will never see this kind of talent if we live to be 1000

what a great clip.. there will NEVER be another Dean Martin and with the Mills Brothers just awesome!
Watched this with a grin,so funny and they seemed to be having so much fun .5stars
Dean is hilarious!!! Great singers!!!
Thinking back in the day was that Dino looked up to Bing Crosby but it was Harry Mills that Martin emulated. The two were very close over the years.
I loved Dean Martin, his variety show awesome

According to a TV biography the Mills Brothers were Dean's fav musical group/
HurricaneRhonda I saw that biography too.
Great performance!
Deans the same color as the brothers!
I love this
Harry Mills
A forgotten American Icon
Not forgotten by me Jonathon...loves Harry Mills i do
As long as he and his brothers are on TH-cam, Harry Mills will NEVER be forgotten!
Harry Mills was my dad’s favorite singer. He sang his songs around the house and didn’t sound half bad. Now I sing them!
Always so good with the very cool Mills Brothers, Dean Martin wasalways so good with his guest's.
My Dad always had Martin & and the Mills Brothers playing in our home. I was born in 1950, but loved them just as much as my Dad did who was born in 1913.
The Mills brothers and Dino. It doesn't get any better than that!
Can't help but smile watching this.
This is fantastic. The Mills Brothers were so smoooth.
parodying himself, i love it..back when performers and performances were real, authentic and spontanteous.......brilliant

Can't get any better than this.
When music was entertaining and entertainment was musical.
I totally agree ,,, this will never be again....Dean Martin and the Mills Brothers when they sing brings back a flood of memories and also tears, some people come just once and can never be replaced
This was back when American culture was at its peak!
Marvellous! A whole show in three fantastic minutes of entertainment. Dino is brilliant and with his idol Harry Warren he pulls out all the stops. This is show business at its finest so thanks for bringing it back to us Deano:)
Stuart Everett you mean Mills.
That opening shtick was brilliant!
True professionals, true entertainers. Versatile and just fun to watch.
they are beautiful! I love them all
I loved it when Harry, pulls a card out to check and get Dean's name right
Love to hear Dean singing with the Mill's Brothers. This is Deano. He needs a drink. To get warmed up.
Dean love the mills brothers when, he was younger he went too see them performing and he pattern his singing ability after thdm and when he had his show it was history
so amazing
WOW WAS THAT GREAT.
Great clip... where did you find this gem... Dean and Mills Brothers were just the best... thank you :)
loved it. such talents
Oh yeah, that was absolutely superb!!!
Class!
This is fantastic ..
I like how Harry Mills helps put across this skit. A natural showman, he should have been used in more TV comedy like this.
Had he and his brothers been born 25-30 years later, Harry probably would have come up via Saturday Night Live or Fridays; he was truly funny.
I LOVE DEAN MARTIN ♥ ❤ 💕 😍 💙 💓

Do You Have The Complete Episode Of This Dean Martin Show From Oct.16th1969? Which DVD Volume Of The Dean Martin Show Has This Episode?
I'm sorry I don't :( It is a piece of "Dean's Ultimate Collection"
From the thumbnail it looks like Dean stole a drink from Harry Mills.
