Le titre est en rouge au centre avec une belle police d'écriture incurvée, puis en noir en bas à droite les noms de Lena Horne, Bill Robinson et Cab Calloway sont mis particulièrement en valeur

Watched this yesterday, because I am a sucker for jump blues, and the Brain DJ cannot resist singing the refrain, "hep, hep!" –

Cab Calloway and his Orchestra, "(Hep-Hep!) The Jumpin' Jive" (1939)

A live performance from the 1943 movie, "Stormy Weather", in which the Nicholas Brothers (Fayard (1914–2006) and Harold (1921–2000)) do a tap routine that will give you serious back pain.

May 25th- Tap dancing

Stormy Weather (1943)
Directed by Andrew Stone

Deservedly legendary Nicholas Brothers tour de force. This number was unrehearsed and done in one take.

Usually I share a picture but for this one a video link is more appropriate.

(Video is of the "Jumpin' Jive" number performed by the Nicholas Brothers, music by Cab Calloway.)

@Deglassco The #nicholasbrothers were the most amazing dancers I’ve ever seen. Ever! Someone once asked a group of friends who was better Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly ? I said the Nicholas Brothers. Only 1 other person knew who they were. Thank you for sharing.

A fresh HD rip of the full 9-minute version of the #GlennMiller Orchestra’s “(I’ve Got a Gal in) #Kalamazoo” from the film Orchestra Wives featuring the #NicholasBrothers. #CesarRomano on piano, #JackieGleason on bass, Glenn Miller on trombone. #bigband #swing

Just because I saw this shared elsewhere and yes, I've seen it before, and you've possibly seen it before too, but why wouldn't you take five minutes to watch the truly unbelievable levels of dancing skills of the Nicholas Brothers with the great musical accompaniment from Cab Calloway and his band any time you get a chance?

@sonyasteele OMG, this is one of my all-time favorite #MovieClips. The #NicholasBrothers were from another planet, I think, because there's no way human beings can move like that. They were the epitome of beauty, grace, strength, and excitement. My heart wants to burst every time I see this. #BlackFriday #BlackMastodon
