It isn't possible to even think of the Harlem Globetrotters and not hear this song in your head.
So true!! Exact song I had in my head before even clicking on the video!
OR hear the song and NOT think of the 'Trotters
I saw them perform in Dallas in 1967. If I hadn't I would be asking,Harlem Who???
Agreed 100%!!
Rest in peace Fred "Curly" Neal. You were one of the great ones!!
It looks like this is pre Curly and Meadowlark.
The Harlem Globetrotters started out as a professional basketball team and in 1939 participated in the first professional basketball championship, losing to the Harlem Rens in the final game. The next year the Globetrotters won the tournament. They changed the sport when, after spending all day traveling to play a game they arrived tired and worn out. During the game the teams best dribbler took over the game while the rest of the team sat down to take a break. It was 1 against 5 and for an entire period he dribbled circles around the other team, they couldn't get the ball away from him. Eventually other teams started using the same tactic which, in 1950, lead to the lowest scoring game in Pro Basketball history, 19 to 18. The next year the league introduced the shot clock.
The Harlem Globetrotters had some great players, one of which was Wilt Chamberlain. He played two years (1956-58) at the University of Kansas, after which he joined the Harlem Globetrotters for a year (1958-59). He went to the NBA in 1959, playing with the Philadelphia Warriors. Other outstanding Globetrotters were Reece “Goose” Tatum, Marques Haynes, Clarence Wilson, “Meadowlark” Lemon, Herb “Geese” Ausbie, and Lynette Woodard, the first woman to play for the team.
Ever since watching my first LIVE performance of the Globetrotters in 1972, these "Magic Circles" have always been my favorite highlight of their games !
Never gets old.
So good to see that, I miss my childhood. Love those guys....
Goose Tatum, Pop Gates, Curly Neal, Marques Haynes and Meadowlark Lemon coached by Abe Saperstein... what a team! Ya can't hear this song without thinking of those guys and all the other great Harlem Globetrotters.
I likes MedoClark the besteses
Nathaniel "Sweetwater" Clifton and Inman Jackson were my favorites.
I enjoyed the Harlem Globe Trotters performing their silly antics on and off the basketball court entertaining people young and old, the world over.
Silly?
I got to see them at our school, Shuksan Middle School in around 1974, fun stuff!
Loved the Globetrotters & Meadowlark & Curley Neal were the greatest! RIP my friend!
For Meadowlark Lemon. R.I.P. Died today at age 83.
may Marques rest in peace. I love that music and there plays
Bob Gibson and Wilt Chamberlain did stints as Globetrotters.
I've been lucky to have watched the Globtrotters a few times .
Meadowlark thanks for all the wonderful childhood memories.
thanksssss this is the standard sweet georgia brown !!!
Sweet Georgia Brown by Brother Bones is the DEFINITIVE Version & BEST Version.
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Marques Haynes (1926-2015) RIP, Globetrotter. Thank you and God bless
Ahhhh, this takes me back Saturday afternoons watching ABC's Wide World of Sports 🌐 .
After Saturday morning cartoons.
The thrill of victory!!. . .
As a Kid I did hear Sweet Georgia Brown...but what really got me going was the Globe Trotter Cartoon with the song Meadowlark!!
HE'S SPINNING THE BALL ON HIS FINGER! JUST TAKE IT! TAKE THE BALL!!!
"THEY USED A LADDER 4 GOD'S SAKE"
This is the music that plays when you go one-on-one with Michael Jordan in Barkley's Shut Up & Jam Gaiden!
Just you, me, and Sweet Georgia Brown...
They originally started in Chicago. The owner chose the Harlem name because at that time Harlem was like a cultural mecca for Blacks. So the owner of the Globetrotters thought associating them with Harlem would add something extra to the team.
Harlem Globetrotters=NBA's DADDY. This piece is TIMELESS! High-spirit entertainment. Marques Haynes' enshrinement in Basketball Hall of Fame is tremendous especially the part @ 9:24. AMAZING. GO MEN GO!!!!!
HE’S SPINNING THE BALL ON HIS FINGER!!!
JUST TAKE IT!!! TAKE THE BALL!!!
I thought the Generals were due!!
you could try but you probably wont be able to take it.
RIP Marques
I saw them from first row (on the ground!) seat in 1960 as they did beat the world champ team of the PRC in Szekesfeérvàr, Hungary.
Maybe you can't respect something that's not your reality..... But those Harlem globetrotters were the best ball players of that day!!! Since white people wasn't letting blacks play in mostly all white NBA they help pave the way like so many....it was a show but the skills was real those shots did go in on time
Romel Murdock They used to come to my high school every year. I loved their show and Peg Leg Bates dancing to Sweet Georgie Brown. Got to meet Meadowlark Lemon and Curlie Neal. The Indiana Pacers used our gym for their home games one year and They’d be the first to tell you, nobody could hang with the Globetrotters.
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Actually it was the aba at this time
There was a time The Harlem Globetrotters were THE BEST basketball team on the damn planet. Many of their players chose to play outside the NBA rather than deal with the racism and humiliation they would have faced playing in the league. Anyone who thinks Pete Maravich and Bob Cousy were the dribblers in the day, I DARE you to compare their ball handling skills to that of Fred ""Curly" Neal, Marques Haynes or Bob "Showboat " Hall.
Romel Murdock absolutely correct
I saw them at Upper Sandusky Ohio in 1948. Very much fun.
"I thought the Shamrocks were DUE!!"
If you don't know them you don't know hoops
The story of Abe Saperstein and the Harlem Globetrotters was told in this movie: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_Man_Go_(film)
loved them guys
Magnificent!!
Wonderful
They played this song for every basketball commercial and/or game
I remember watching when I was about ten years old and we didn’t have ANY basketball in England then, in the team was a guy called Lemon (I think) and he was hilarious. A great memory and sixty years later I still remember them.
Trevor Giddings - AWESOME!!!! 🏀👌😀✌
That would have been Meadowlark Lemon, #36. The most famous Harlem Globetrotter of all time.
true entertainment!
Who is the GOAT 🏅🏅🏅
can you do more???.
so let me get this right, you took all the money you made from merchandising your brand and BET IT AGAINST the Harlem Globetrotters?
The Culpeper Blue Devils played that song in warm ups before every game in the late sixties and early seventies. Won the Virginia AA state championship in 1972. Harold Jones, MVP, Sonny Bowles and PeeWee Chapman.
So did Hopewell Blue Devils.
I'm old enough 64+
Loved SueX

You heard this song you just lost the game
Dribble dribble dribble tuck in shirt, give to my friend
Spin on finger, two rotations, dream about window
Put away basketball, go to work in calcium mine
J Cole you the goat

Rebound
Get ready
Vintage!
Marques Haynes is the greatest dribbler ever!
dude how old is that
what year was that from?
👊
who did the wislting, Bojangles Robinson?
Freeman Davis, aka "Brother Bones"
i have one of these late 1960's vintage globetrotter films in mint condition..wonder what to do with it?? i am 62 widowed and don't know anything about sports memobilla?? houseinhardy + gmail maybe a team member would like to own it?? seems like it belongs somewhere "out there" than in storage??
+Ms B these commercial films were mass produced, tightly edited. usually 5 min or less with no sound. often times the original box if it's in good condition is worth more than the film. think of these films as edited vhs or dvd's without audio! what would they be worth? Nuthin'. I digitized this film, added the soundtrack for youtube. I sold the film a # of years ago for about 10 bucks.
For Curly ☝🏾
Are there lyrics
My fav SueX
is that The Stilt chaim!?!?
i don't think so
Baijool!
What year was this
this is a commercial reel & as such there was no date on it. these reels were popular from the 40s-60s, with it being closer to the 40s based on the players.
not sure. could be 40's, or 50's.
2:12 IF he missed 💀
Pay anything 2 C them play live back in there days😕
😨😱😨😱😨😱😨😱😨😱😨😱😨😱😨
Scooby-Doo meets the Harlem Globetrotters

It's not that vintage. It's not like the Globetrotters go back to Charlie Chaplin's or Louis Armstrong's best work in the 1920s. This footage, featuring the dribbling of Marques Haynes, wouldn't have been made prior to 1950. It could have been extra, unedited footage from either of the Globetrotters' feature films (1951, 1954).
I think most people would say a video from 1951 or 1954 is vintage wtf
You really know how take the magic out of something, don't you.... 😤
Oh toobealive back in those days I should pay an arm&a leg 2C them live
I can't respect the team vs team part of the show since it was choreographed... Would've been nice if those handles were displayed against a legit defense...... Or maybe I'm just too young to appreciate how "cool" that was back in the day. Lmao.
Antwan Edwards The Globetrotters were the best basketball team in the world. They beat the 1948 Champions (The Lakers) 61-59. and again in a re-match, 49-45. very cool.
Antwan Edwards It was NEVER about the game but their ability to ball handle. You can't dropkick a ball, line up in a football stance and go long for the bomb, jump on another players shoulders, etc in a real NBA game. It was about showmanship talent & ability, these guys could dazzle the court like no one had ever seen before, especially in the early days, they were are still are goodwill ambassadors, their talent often surpassed most NBA players but they also had some of the greatest NBA players play for them and yes in a real game they could often hold their own.
tubengagements It was all about making us laugh!😁😁😁
You are and pull your pants up
Typical clueless youngins these days. Swear up & down they shit is made of gold. No Fucking Respect or Appreciation due to a lack of Knowledge for their Fore-Fathers who paved they way for any of Our - Kultures! Listen to mumble (c)rappers & got the audacity? Hilarious -> Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!! 😲😵😨😱😅😰😁😂
