The Mills Brothers and Dean (Full Sequence) 12/28/67

[@usaneebeilles9510]

Look v pleased while performing with his idols. How charming. He's missed.

[@WILGRAVATTMUSIC]

Will someone please tell me why popular music today is nowhere near the talent level of these magical brothers?

[@Alffovinni]

because record companies sold out

[@nigelgunson1025]

You had to have talent back then. Regards.

[@redstone5149]

Auto tune and pitch correction wasn’t invented back then. Therefore, you had to actually have singing talent to succeed. Nowadays you can literally take anyone off the street and add smoke, wind machines, scantily clad women, obnoxiously fake diamond encrusted jewelry and a super car and make a hit record.

[@joannilson2900]

That's my question too!!

[@anitaboeckmann8545]

This is true good Music 🎵

[@RollinCoco-Nut]

Fun Fact: The Mills Brothers hailed from Piqua, and Dean Martin was born in Steubenville ... In other words, that was an all-Ohio quintet performing on the stage there! 🙂

[@richardmartinez5938]

Wow. I'm only 69 but I love this song

[@diannedearriel5213]

👁️👁️. Gotcha beat - I’m 81 this year 2024. I met them while in high school… Wanna know silly story❓ Look for my signature: 👁️👁️ in this video, under COMMENTS ❣️

You can tell they REALLY enjoyed singing with each other...true brothers!!!

[@bettygovaert2014]

They all are missed! What a beautiful voices❤!

[@ftoniaromano6480]

I love Dean Martin❤️ One of the reasons is because Dean brought The Mills Brothers into my living room. I love them! The Mills Brothers! 💫✨❤️

[@dougdanzeisen9608]

"Cab Driver" was the last major hit of the Mills Brothers in the year this was broadcast, 1967. I remember hearing it playing on a lot of AM radio stations at the time. These guys were really amazing with their harmonies and showmanship. They were truly idols of Dean Martin, and he said so many times. I wish the Mills brothers could have been regular guests on his show. Dean really fit in with them well, his joy at singing with them is quite obvious.

[@markmontieth8815]

It’s become one of my favorite songs

[@susancain8505]

I play this music regardless of how much my kids complain. Our kids need to listen to treasures like this.

[@mileqjameel8166]

That's what I'm talkin bout! Go head Mom of The Century!!!!

[@clancywalker8390]

AGREE.

[@jobe6792]

My kids decided to like it! And Johnny Mercer, and The Ink Spots, and Dean Martin, and Perry Como, and Patti Page, and Doris Day, and Jo Stafford, and the Boswell Sisters, and...😄

[@vakarian88]

My 3 year old often requests Mills Brothers. Especially loves Paper Doll, Old Man of the Mountain and How'm I doin'.

[@lisbetsoda4874]

​@@vakarian88enjoy it as long as it lasts

[@MikeBlitzMag]

Donald, Herbert and Harry Mills (not to mention their late brother, John Junior) raised the bar so high for vocal harmony gymnastics that they still set the standard of excellence, nearly a century since they first gave it a go. So much so that Dean Martin himself considered them to be his own role models. Absolute, utter perfection.

[@mileqjameel8166]

I didn't know that Dean looked up to them. Wow smh! I Know Dean Martin has great vocals almost like he was a Brother himself. Not that it matters but you cant help hearing it when you a musician & a brother who's played in the church and other soul music lol. I've Always loved his voice.

[@adf3comcast1]

You are absolutely correct. John H. Mills (Don's song) is continuing the tradition by celebrating the 100th anniversary of the group.

[@brucelaclaire2872]

They were the best of singers I've ever heard

[@thomaskallmyr]

Agree 100% !

[@thomaskallmyr]

The Kennedy Brothers was not taken from us,neither by Lee Harvey Oswald,or by Palestinian Sirhan Bishara,but by a Japaneese/Austrian,living in Stockholm,Kungsholmen.

Amen

I was 16 when I first heard them on the Dean Martin show. Oh Lord, were they ever wonderful! Great harmony. I wanted to listen to them more than any rock group. And yes, they were classy.

[@davidvannote9281]

CLASSIC! When I was a kid this music came out of one of my dad’s greatest and unaffordable purchases, a Curtis-Mathis b&w console with doors in front of the tv, am radio and a turntable up top . Benny Goodman, classic opera & composers, Sinatra, Bobby Darin, the Beatles, the Carpenters, Dean, Franky, Buddy, blues, jazz, Ella, oh, Ella and many more plus ‘Bubbles’ on tv. We only had 3 network channels, pbs and 1 independent that all signed off after midnight with the American Anthem. Left me to listen to radio at night in the summertime. NOW I’m trying to navigate a ‘computer in my hands’ with buttons to small for fat fingers which is 1000 times more powerful(exponentially) than the controls and genius that sent men to the moon and back and built the most elegant air breathing jet EVER, the SR-71. What a joy it is to listen to true artists that are perfect w/o earbuds LIVE on stages everywhere, is it not a privilege? Honestly, you must be humbled ….. btw; I’ll only kneel before my God but stand proudly for America

[@TVaughan667]

Performing for 40 years and still making it look fresh!

[@mjcau]

This is the truly remarkable thing over such a long career - they kept it fresh and they kept getting better. Some of their later performances are so polished, yet they still left room to play and improvise and keep it fun and fresh, rather than mechanical.

[@TTR61]

Almost 53 years ago this video aired and I was not born yet I really hate the fact that I was not alive at that magical Years

[@peterbland7227]

So much love among them.

[@johnuskudarli2246]

I`m nearly 56 years old and like many genres from blues to classic rock yet when walking down the street many times I`ll sing ` Cab Driver ` to myself; hum it if out for a walk on a trail.

[@diannedearriel5213]

👁️ 👁️. GOT TO MEET’em at food delivery truck sent to a Benefit Dinner @ a private home in Tucson. Kind men that walked to truck to sing a song/entertain us … 3 Mexican workers that spoke little English & me (blonde/blue eyed & also in same high school) They said “”Guess you don’t know our music.”” I said I do, my Mother has your album with you dressed & looking like you might be in NY …. Wanted to know if I would like to hear a song 🎶. I said “”any thing - my Mom will be sooo happy for me & sooo sad she wasn’t here in person to hear you … I chimed in with 🎵 CAB DRIVER, ONCE MORE RIUND THE PARK … I’m 81 now, still in Arizona 🌵

@@TheUnQuake I am sorry I just saw your question. I don't remember what he said. I am 82 now and this was in the 70's. It was a long story ...my husband at the time had got 2 tickets for their show and in the meantime he got mad at me and wouldn't go; so I took both tickets and went by myself. I was there for the first show and loved it; since I had the other ticket I stayed for the second show also. I had them take a picture with me. I still have the picture. It brings back wonderful memories when I hear them sing!!

[@kathypiazza7228]

My dad had all their records including 78’s. I am 62 so they were playing when I was in my cradle. My husband hadn’t heard of them till he met my dad, was converted. Dean Martin was a regular on record then once a week on the tv. Sinatra, Billie Holiday we’re favourites he passed along to me & mine. Glad this has been posted.

I first heard Glow Worm in my grandparents' car at the age of 10. When I asked them who it was, Grandma said she had a Mills Brothers cassette at home. 😁 I played that thing non-stop for a long time. That was 25 years ago. They are now happily a staple of my musical library. As is Dean and the rest of the fellows (and ladies) of that fine era. Wish I had been around for more of it ...

I can see Harry in Dean! Especially his gestures and facial expressions. You can tell when they sing next to each other. That was his idol, not Bing, it was all Harry. Lol it’s almost like Dean is nervous then he wants to impress at the end 😃😂😂 he’s having the time of his life!

I’ve been trying watch everything I can find on KZbin on the Mills brothers since I saw them with Dean. Pure talent! I wish there was individual biographies on the Mills brothers. I would love to know more about them. I’ve found some old interviews with them and didn’t realise Harry Mills was loosing his eye sight and was complete blind but he kept performing. The audience didn’t even realise - what a class act!

[@MrSlatsp1]

I was lucky enough to see them 4 times in person. This was late 70's, 1980--in Florida. . 2 venues were supper clubs where we talked to them two different times. They were the nicest, most approachable guys you could meet. Even Harry was nice to speak with even though he might have been totally blind at this time. Donald and Herb were very nice too and got to speak with both of them one on one.
