Al Jolson and the Andrews Sisters - The Old Piano Roll Blues (1950) descargar videos gratis

Superb stuff. We may not see it again though groups like the gang in "Glee" give me hope. I'll bet Fats Waller was influenced by the humor and asides of big Al and the Andrews Sisters were always professional and tight. A nice romp through an oldie.

My dad saw Jolson in person in Detroit at the Schubert Theatre. He remembered fondly how Jolson would not just sing but also move around, dance a little, and just deliver a song to the audience. He loved him. He told me that after a few curtain calls at the end of the show Jolson would say "Wait a minute, wait a minute, you ain't heard nothing yet". Everyone thought he was coming back on stage again, but my dad said he didn't. The show was definitely over.

I idolised Jolson and this tune was on the radio constantly during the post-war years. My Dad was a pub pianist and it was a favourite of his.Brings back many memories of happy times and my much loved parents.Thanks for posting it.

No, this was a Decca single with "Way Down Yonder in New Orleans" on the flip side.

Sweet, What a rare and excellent teaming. Jolson teamed on some songs with a number of people back then. Was this done on Jolson's radio show? Great upload.

Jolie lives! Andrews Sisters forever!

Another example of a great performer who didn't know what was most important in life. Always enjoy his voice, energy, and style. One of a kind!

Alex Braun

Albert Whillock

Can you imagine being there to watch this performance- Jolie in his element- the upstart sisters- that piono ringing- sounds like they were havin' a ball together, if I'm hearin' correctly. Good stuff.Jolie is still the very best, Crosby was good and Sinatra couldn't ever top Jolson in his wildest dreams. Forget the likes of Frankie Laine, Tony Bennet and others from that era. I know Jolie would have liked Elvis, what a voice he had. He would hve liked Neil Diamond as well no doubt.

@varietyguy For some bizarre reason, it appears that his version didn't chart, although, as you can read in my description under the video, there were six charting versions in 1950!

Doug Galloway

A #11 hit for Hoagy and Cass so where did Jolson's version rank?

Donald Lerman
