I've got a Gal in Kalamazoo
This is the full clip of the Glenn Miller band with Tex Beneke and one of the greatest dance routines ever in movies by the Nicholas Brothers. From the 1942 movie "Orchestra Wives"

Kalamazoo is now an S hole thanks to Democrats
Brought to you from when America was great.
Я в России или где?
Truly an amazing time. Lots of skill professionalism and real talent.
My dad listened to this music so it’s engraind in my mind when I hear it I think of him
Tune into sirius/xm 40s junction
I believe the female singer is the sister of actress Betty Hutton.
Was that Jackie Gleason playing the bass?
Yes, but only pretending. He was dubbed by the band's actual bassist, Doc Goldberg.
I just noticed that's Ralph Kramde is on the upright bass, and on the piano is the Joker.
👍👍 Fox Studios would often put members of their "actors' stable" in small parts to give them extra exposure. Jackie wasn't playing, of course; his part was dubbed by the band's actual bass player Doc Goldberg. Interestingly, despite his lack of performing ability he had a wealth of musical knowledge, and even formed his own orchestra during his TV days.
My sisters era Lucky!
I know her
Every time I watch the Nicholas Brothers, I am left wondering if those two men are even earthlings. Their combination of flexibility and strength are simply above ordinary human abilities.
I was at ww2 exhibit at fort macon showcasing a infantry barracks 1942-44 and they had radio digitally tuned to big band hits from this era. U could close your eyes and literally go back 80 or so years!
is that betty hutton? looks like her
It's her sister Marion. They were near look-alikes.

Hi I’m here in 2024, can’t get enough of this beautiful music. This is classic music and entertainment.
Kalamazoo indian voice...
Me recuerda mi infancia...
A very young Jackie Gleason... and Caesar Romero on the keys
Yes - both parts were dubbed though, Gleason by Doc Goldberg and Romero by Chummy MacGregor.
Jackie Gleason pretending to play the bass - Funny - 0:17
The base fiddle player sure looks like Jackie Gleason and piano player is Cesar Romero.
Yes that IS Jackie on bass (sp). He was just miming though; Doc Goldberg was actually playing. Ditto for Cesar Romero who was dubbed by Chummy MacGregor.
Weird mouth but very talented.
You will never see this music again.
When Western culture was still at it's peak.
OUTSTANDING!! I have no words. The joy and artistry of the Nicholas Bros... This is Olympic level gymnastics while wearing a tux and dress shoes with leather soles and TAPS 🤘🏾👊🏽 I try to comprehend the work put in and discipline, as Black men in the 1940s, to achieve this level of prowess and accomplishment. I need to know more about them. If there isn't a statue or monument for them somewhere, there should be. Respect.
Pure magic love this music so much ❤
Two michael jacksons wow
Hey, there’s some rock n roll in that Kalamazoo, Swing it babes!
I was going on 2 when this film was shot. Seen this clip few times across the years BUT How did I miss Gleason on the bass?! Since when could Cesar Romero play piano?!
Mee 2024
My teacher eould sing this to the class when I was in high school. Now, i share this song with my kids because they were botn where? In K A L A M A Z O O. Home grown Michiganders. ❤ #KalamazooMaroonGiant
I just saw the Glenn Miller Orchestra tonight in Traverse City. They were fab.
Two of the finest, most talented and underrated dancers to ever grace the silver screen and probably any stage anywhere. Once you reach a certain level of proficiency, "expert" or "master" become meaningless words. These two gentlemen are right at the top of the field with Astaire, Kelly, O'Connor, Hines, Sammy Davis, and anyone else who ever wore taps. Thank you for posting this, as this is the first time I've seen this performance.
I love the shoulder bop that Hutton does at 1:30-1:35.
Anther great number from The Glenn Miller Story. I wasn't aware who the blonde, spunky singer was. She, however, reminded me a lot of super-star, Betty Hutton. Now I learn that she was actually Betty's sister. She was another natural before the camera. Watch those body movements and naturalness when the camera is whirring. She was full of life, just like her energetic sister.
What magnificent artistry and performances amazing all analog no amplification just pure talent. This is timeless and must always be appreciated for this immense amount of effort and perfection to get it that good man what happened to our culture?
To me the most outstanding performance and personality in thus video is MARION HUTTON. She is just stunningly charming/happy/and cute ...womanly cute.
My 12 yr old son loves Glenn Miller. I feel like I have got all my parenting right at this moment :)
People were just built different back then. Actual talent, actual class. This isn't the genre of music I come from, but what a performance. The Greatest Generation wasn't only great on the battlefields.
I believe people are still good. I wish they would care more about their appearance.
It's great music! The reason there are so many 'extras' , as in 'crowded with wall to wall people scenes' - was to employ as many extras as possible during the great depression after the Wall St crash between the two world wars.
This film was made in 1941. The Depression wasn't completely gone but was well on the way. In any case, extras and bit players came cheap in those days 😀
Who is here in 2024?
Got my iconic Best of Glenn as a young teen but was listening years before as an 8 yr old.Im 63 now and know every word and note ,all versions.Ive outlived my poor clarinet I started playing at 11, as I was inspired by Miller's music.
Yes!
Me!!
Me too!
I am! It makes me dance!
The golden age of music, dance, dress...so much class. How we've fallen.
Todays music is this mix of beats and sounds but even if you have the paint it does not mean you can always make the art.
Amen,we have fallen, and are falling fast.
We still have those things. Just so you know. Like, they're still around.
@@bargaintuesday812 Not enough.
@@ignorecorporatenews How so?
Goosebumps! Was brought up to Glenn Miller and all the big bands...real musicians
I was an officer at Western Michigan University Department of Public Safety and can tell you that I had a lot of gals in Kalamazoo...**sigh**... that cost me a couple of marriages.
Flippin' marvelous.😘🇬🇧
Ohhhhh my lord great awsome just american, what has happened we went to hell , the greatest of all time here
Is Kalamazoo the best place to visit in Michigan? I’ve never been out of state and I wonder if Glen Miller was onto something. 😎
morally bankrupt seth rogers. Those pants were not found in a park the police told you they were found by a waitress at the same restauarant where Sebastian had eaten at in the back parking lot dumpster. Seth you need to tell the truth you sexually harrassed the female searchers till they left. You slapped searchers with cease and desist orders. tell Nancy the truth as too what you have been doing.
I am 15 been listening to this music since I was 10 just love it.
Keep going! I bought my first Glenn Miller record at about the same age and still love his music decades later.
Grew up listening to this music!
