Had the great privilege of meeting Calloway at an event at what's now the former Trump Hotel D.C., now a Waldorf, then just The Old Post Office. He was visiting w his first daughter Camay, who'd risen thru the ranks of the Arlington school system. He was indifferent to my praises, but shook my hand so I get to pocket that. He was brilliant. So were Fayard and Harold. Much of their routine here gets adapted in the Minelli 'Pirate' thanks to Gene Kelly, who honorably shares the stage WITH than showcases (ghettoizes) them separately. This is a rare find and I am very grateful for this.
If I had that talent there for a filming I would gladly pay extra to film a full concert. Both the dancers and the band. You don’t see stuff like this anymore. I need to get more swing and electro swing for my phone. lol
Holy Smokes these men did it so great and the dancing is amazing, I love to see them move its outstanding and love watching Cab move when first coming out.
This is true genius and pure magic !!! Truly Divinely inspired.! Their dancing performance is one the Angels would surely envy! Bravo…❤️❤️❤️❤️ they are masters to say the least! Thank you for this video!🙏
Just amazing how these men move! Every time I watch this video, I'm on awe of their sheer physical beauty and strength. Just amazing what the human body can do when moved by music.
This left me speechless, mouth agape, during the whole performance. I particularly love how they, and Can in other videos of him, use the tails of their jackets as part of the dancing. So cool. So impressive.
I took adult tap at 26" wasnt very good at it but wow! the classes make you super appreciate those moves. I saw a dicumentary of the men when they wete prob in their 60s or 70s..talking about the shows they did and places they went! I think the younger brother performed in France A while!

They only needed one take to film it! From the 1943 film "Stormy Weather."
Yeah,it’s called talent

This is true genius and pure magic !!! Truly Divinely inspired.! Their dancing performance is one the Angels would surely envy! Bravo…❤️❤️❤️❤️ they are masters to say the least! Thank you for this video!🙏
Oh. My. God. In 2024 you couldn't do that with CGI, but the Nicholas Brothers could do it live.
Just amazing how these men move! Every time I watch this video, I'm on awe of their sheer physical beauty and strength. Just amazing what the human body can do when moved by music.

And the shadows, too!
If there is anything cooler I haven’t seen it.
How could you hear this and not immediately jump up, smile, then DANCE!!!! Impossible…💃💃💃💃
Beyond terrific! Imagine being a kid of Cab's. He was a loon, but so silly you wanted to hug him and pinch his cheeks.
The incredible dancing skill of the Nicholas Brothers and Cab Calloway, the king of cool.

It hurts my knees watching this but I'm so jealous
Cab Calloway was so awesome!! He even made a cameo on Sesame Street!!! The Nicholas Brothers were WAY ahead of their time in TAP TALENT!!!!
Not ahead of their time. But a part of their time 80 years ago.
I'm a great music pickerer on the jukebox at my local pub. I'm definitely playing this song today. Lol.
Dance as an art form !
The word phenomenal, does not do this Justice!
Very cool!
Wonder if they started practicing for the desktop part of that routine with mocked up cardboard/wooden band members and instruments.
