EASY TO WED 01

[@AndyZach]

She has the rhythm of a professional drummer, the showmanship of Liberace, and the keyboard chops of a professional organist.

[@MarkBrantner]

She does play the Drums, too.

[@relentlessprogress]

She was truly special on the organ. Every clip of her I've seen has blown me away.

[@shawnmcculley2995]

+greg thomas Me too!!!

[@TheCiaMKultra]

Me Three! Her timing is impeccable . Not to mention her moves , no wonder Disney picked her up

[@robertcoffey1938]

ME FOUR !.SHE WAS THE TRUE "QUEEN OF THE ORGAN". I LEARNED "TICO TICO " FROM HER LEGENDARY RECORDING AND HAVE POSTED IT AS A SPECIAL TRIBUTE AND THANK YOU TO HER

[@JereR]

Same! Incredible lady!

[@robertcoffey1938]

I AGREE WITH YOU 100%.SHE WAS AMAZING!

[@DonizeteMesapereira]

[@burnett.burnett]

What a remarkably talented woman... And not hard to look at either.

[@anb740]

I’ve yet to see anyone else who could move his/her fingers on the keyboards as fast as Ethel Smith could. Truly one of a kind!

[@julianfaranda]

The only one I know that would even come close is Cameron Carpenter, except his speed is in the pedals.

[@deedeehollie6545]

Ever heard of Hazel Scott…they called her flying fingers. She played piano and was a beast!!!

[@holyspacemonkey]

I adore Ethel Smith! 🎹 👑💕

[@paulj0557tonehead]

The fuss was there was no audio when we all commented. I'm glad someone listened and the audio was restored. Copyrights are for protection, but when the organ is stopped from being heard everyone loses. Ethel Smith did a lot to bring the great Hammond organ in to the public eye. It was because of her excellent abilities that the organ became as popular as it did. At one time the organ was like the home computer and everyone seemed to be buying one. The Hammond models were built to last forever!

[@td1238]

And commonly they are gutted these days for their tube amplifiers. Tragic

[@johnferguson4089]

She had phenomenal technique on keyboards and pedals!

[@j.dragon651]

Surely better on the eye than Liberace.

[@TheWorldBelow360]

What an astonishingly beautiful woman! And incredibly adept! What a thrill!

[@rony.3836]

Nice looking woman. If she were still alive in 2023 she'd be 121 years old !

[@zzzut]

I have been playing the Hammond B3 for over 50 years and I still couldn’t do one tenth of what Ethel Smith did. She is a true inspiration.

[@laudiceao]

QUE ARTE LINDA !HOJE NAO TEM MAIS TA FALTANDO ESSA SIMPATIA DA ETHEL SMITH

[@TheWorldBelow360]

[@DonizeteMesapereira]

[@PlayIt4MeAgainSam]

Amazingly talented! Great.

[@nicermguy1]

There was a great version of Tico Tico played by Ethel Smith from a movie that was posted last year. It got taken down due to some copy write issue. I've seen the one with Bob Hope and the one with the young ladies backing her up in MGM's "bathing beauties", but I believe it was a different version with the Bando Carioca. I think that was the best version of Tico TIco she did. Too bad we can't see it anymore.

[@rosekween1]

what a talent!

[@christopherobert1669]

Quel talent... La perfection a un nom.

[@johnferguson8993]

What brilliant technique!

[@toniperry8032]

AWESOME!!!!!!!! No one does it like Ethel Smith

[@paul0wen65]

She was a rocker!

[@KaiqueNovaes]

Woooow! Perfect!

[@TheJensrasmussen]

She was so unbelivebly hot in this clip!

[@lolopointu]

1:46 Pedal pump of piano in collants yesss

[@peterhunt5890]

She is DIVINE thank you

[@GreyHeIs]

What do you all complain, that such talent isn't around any more? Isn't there, for example, a Barbara Dennerlein?

[@marshallartz395]

She’s terrific!

[@hunkydorian]

Dennerlein doesn't, and couldn't, do all the acting and all the showmanship that Ethel does.

[@GreyHeIs]

@@hunkydorian Is that somehow linked to musical ability? I prefer the ones who focus on their musical expression. Barbara Dennerlein is absolutely world class.

[@paulj0557tonehead]

@youtube get this authorized please. The organ as we know it is a dying art form and the music instrument world needs a boost! Every day organs are posted for pennies on the dollar compared to their original prices. If people don't buy them many go to the dump. The Hammond and Wurlitzer electromechanical organs built between 1934 and 1975 were built with so much skill and quality materials that they can last for hundreds of years with regular maintenance and capacitor replacement every 30 years.

[@td1238]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@giuseppeleone9729]

What a tecnique

[@junetynf]

What's all the fuss about no audio,mine is fine....I might even sample this song,it's kind of perfect.

[@cemegonuts]

it's funny how little you care about the dancing/dancers portion of this when you watch this lady play the organ. its mesmerizing. the dancers detract from the real performance.

[@claudemirfonseca4911]

EM QUE ANO SE PASSA ESSE VÍDEO ??? ESSA MULHER É UMA LENDA.

[@junetynf]

Nice.

[@woodrailking]

Deep Purple "Hush" at 1:48.

[@zaettav]

greetings from Canada

[@benjaminnormal9968]

Dare I say it, she might be better than Jimmy smith himself

[@hunkydorian]

I really hope she got rich.

[@MarkBrantner]

What is the title of the song? It's not TicoTico

[@jpavantography]

TOO BAD there's no audio... I LOVE ETHEL!!!

[@Elainerulesutube]

she was good!

[@clarkinthedark1]

What's probably most disgusting is that this track can't be purchased anywhere... So the world can no longer enjoy this fantastic music... Nazis!

[@benyew899]

She is the world's fastest organist.....

[@zerostat]

Indeed, so sad. A clip like this can only help promote the movie. How sad, how sad :(

[@jorgetangosanchez7930]

Ethel,aun vive?o no.

[@georgerikken]

the wind is loosing by this speed

[@orchids959]

She did play in "Bathing Beauty" but this clip is from, as it says, "Easy To Wed"...and this is the only good part.

[@clarkinthedark1]

@crazychiliquaker1959 Point taken. Thank you for the lead!

[@MrMLD1972]

♥ .

[@orchids959]

The new ones are sampled and not the same.

[@TheAdmiralBacon]

Oh seriously KZbin? No audio AT ALL? That's... That's just madness. If anybody knows somewhere else that has this footage, please let me know.

[@davcar23]

And no Leslie

[@ivanigorpollick6690]

she was a dinamite
