Classic. From hollywoods golden era. Very rare! Impeccable talent. Thanks for posting, I have much respect for these artists who shined even in the face of all the burdens and predjudace that prevailed in that day. Love the cabin kids. Thanks so much for posting.
So happy to hear good clean music really enjoyed saw the movie when my dad was stationed in germany brought back good memories my dad has passed on to glory and I nearly cried still missing him thank you for posting such agood memory of my past.
Stettler Alberta is a long long way from Harlem, so it took a few years for their music to get there, but it seems this is a music I grew up with in the Botha Dance Hall.
The Cabin Kids clip is not from a Soundie.It is actually from their very first film appearance from a 20 minute comedy short from Educational Pictures titled "She my Lilly (I'm Her Willie)" from 1934.At the time of this film they were originally called THE 5 SPIRITS OF HARMONY and this was the way they were billed in this film.From their 2nd film on they were known as The Cabin Kids.The other songs they sang in this film were:"This Train" and 'Honey."
I think it's more that that's what the white people in charge wanted and allowed. The novel Invisible Man touches up on the idea well. The guy who wrote it was a huge fan of this music, Ralph Ellison.
Black is beautiful !!!!
