I like how the guy on the sax just calmly leaned out of the way and kept playing while the brother danced a millimeter away then swung his leg over him. He was the true star of the show.

I've seen Cab twice! Once in 81 and again in 93. In 93 he was at the grand Re-opening of the rebuilt Durham Theater in North Carolina. He was asked to play as he was the one who opened it 60 years earlier! Still had his mojo. The 82 show was at a similar grand hall for only 1200 seats. His voice was so clear he gave us a couple songs without a microphone, not needed. Amazing. It was the Blues Brothers opened my eyes to Cab ☺️

That has to be one of the greatest dance routines of all times. I have either read or seen that it was a single take on that dance routine!!!! If that isn't enough to blow you away. I remember back in the day when everyone wanted to dress up and look classier. But that was a Bygone era!

The drummer seen at the beginning (0:30) is J. C. Heard. I spoke to him a few times on the telephone back in the mid-1980s when I was an announcer at a jazz radio station in Trenton, NJ. He was a really nice guy and was excited that my station was playing his records. (He was leading his own big band out of Detroit at this point.) I first saw this dance clip when I was taking swing dance lessons in the mid-1990s. The Nicholas Brothers aren't only incredible dancers but outstanding athletes as well. They knew how to both control their muscles and take care of them, too. Nobody does stuff like that without getting injured unless they knew proper stretching, warm-ups, etc. This dance is a marker by which all other dances need to be measured.

Exactly 80 (eighty) years ago, on JULY 21, 1943, a film "STORMY WEATHER" appeared on the cinema screens at that time. There are many songs on the soundtrack of this film, the most famous being "Jumping Jive" performed by Cab Calloway (you can also see it in the famous film "The Blues Brothers" from 1980) and his "Cotton Club" orchestra. . . . there was a time when the singer came to the filming with his own VOICE (NOT processed in the studio and recorded on tape), and the members of the orchestra knew their instruments perfectly (NOT processed electronically on the computer). But this movie "Stormy Weather" remained forever in the history of cinema for the incomparable dance performed by "The Nicholas Brothers". . . . and the sequence with the dance of the NICHOLAS brothers being considered by many dancers and choreographers to be in the first 3 places in the entire history of films of this kind. If you were impressed by the dance of the NICHOLAS brothers. . . give LIKE and then SHARE to other friends.

The Nicholas Brothers were incredible and Cab Calloway was a master entertainer, and his band were also unbelievable craftsmen. Your joy in watching this amalgam of big band swing music and tap dance is understandable. As the drummer for an 18-piecce big band and a tap dancer, I know how enticing the music and movement can be. I was fortunate enough to meet Fayard at a tap master class back in the 1990s, he was a nice gentleman who could still dance and tell great stories.

@@nzlemming I had to do research as it seems EVERYONE has to "embellish" greatness to sometimes MYTHIC proportions. This performance was done for a movie in 1943. It seems it was done in 1 take, as I couldn't find evidence to the contrary. They didn't even rehearse this routine. They saw the stage setup, had the music then sort of "winged it", according to Fayard Nicholas (the elder brother). THIS IS WHERE THE GREATNESS LIES!!! He stated they worked 3, sometimes 4, nights a week, doing 3 shows nightly, from midnight to sometimes 5 or 6 in the morning. Harold, the younger brother by 6 years, was still a minor. So, technically, this is a "one off"---but that does NOT minimize the greatness of this performance...

Probably the greatest physical dance ever on film. i bet they did that last bit doing the splits down the steps over each other in one take knowing they wouldn't be able to do it twice in one day without real physical damage [came to work as a tenor, went home as a soprano]. If I attempted the splits, even at age 20, I would have ended up in traction lol. Worse if I had attempted that dance for any length of time, I would have ended up in Forest Lawn, but my name wouldn't be on the headstone. they would have put "Dumb Fool Thought He was a Nicholas Brother."

One artist that unlocked this whole era for me was (surprisingly) a UK "New Wave" musician: Joe Jackson. Most of his music was pop (with wicked bass lines). In 1981 he released a 10 song album of swing tunes: The Jumpin Jive. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5DWlIGGiqyWetU This predated the swing revival of the late 90's by roughly 16 years. Is band is known for a string of 80s Hits. For live performances he added amazing Caribbean percussion. They are incredible live: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3iummuoaKqbZrs

The UK is a wonderful place to learn ballroom dance. There are many fine teachers. There is a reason that the "International" (as opposed to "American") style was originally known as "English". Since you seem to enjoy the elegance and line, you might like to start with Waltz and Foxtrot (I have a soft spot for Quickstep), though the Latin side of the house has it's charm as well. Don't worry about your feet. As you seemed to be noticing, you dance with your body, your feet are just along to hold you up.
