This was one of my favorites my little 5 foot tall grandmother used to play. She could actually play it close to that tempo. Her little hands would fly across those keys and her feet would be flying over those bass pedals. A lot of great memories of her playing this on warm summer nights. She was a great musician. She and her mother played the theater organ in the silent movie era. Five of her nine children were musicians. Me and my brother carry on that legacy.
Who was your grand - mother? Ethel Smith. Very few people can actually play this mighty work... on the Hammond B-3 and Ethel played in high-heels. Wonder of wonders. History... was us. Don't tell anybody I said so.
@@charlesdavis7087 My grandmother was barely 5 feet tall. She had tiny feet but I can still remember her little feet moving all over those bass pedals when she played this song on the organ. 4 of her sons were accomplished musicians - all keyboard players. The oldest of the 4 did a live album with legendary Rockabilly guitarist Danny Gatton around 1967.
Ethel married actor Ralph Bellamy the following year (1945) but they had a very short-lived marriage which lasted only two years. Ethel didn’t approve of his drinking and Ralph claimed in his divorce testimony that she locked him out of their Manhattan apartment numerous times when he didn’t arrive home 15-minutes after the last curtain-call. Ralph was Ethel’s second (and last) husband and Ethel was Ralph’s third wife….he married his fourth wife in 1949.
Ethel Smith could really play! She deserved much more adulation and and wide-spread fame than she received. I played this piece in her arrangement as a teenager, and it was a delight to find the real thing here. Thank you! mb
If only ladies could look like ladies again. You can call me misogynist if you want, I don't give a f**k. I don't want someone who looks and dresses like me.
My Mum, who loved Ethel (we had the original RCA 45 of Tico Tico in our Zenith Cabinet 'Hi-Fi' in our living room when I was a kid), always said that the organist that played at my parents' wedding could play jazz organ like this.
It looks like Ethel is playing the Hammond model BC from the late 1930s and 1940s. I had one that was just like it but mine was heavily damaged by being left in the back room of a church with a leaky roof. I restored my 1937 wood cabinet, tossed out the dual tone generators and all the other original electronics, and then transplanted all the electronics and keyboards from a 1954 model C-2. Then I added Trek II percussion and reverb and recapped the C-2 tone generator. This resulted in essentially a Hammond B-3 that sounds as good as it did from the 1960s. I then used this organ in my Classic Rock band for about 10 years and enjoyed it tremendously. There is nothing better than the sound of a classic tone wheel Hammond organ!
I am a diehard Ethel Smith fan!!!! I consider her as the greatest performer to ever play a Hammond organ!!!! I have always favored equipment like organs that use vacuum tubes!!!! I never liked anything that does not use vacuum tubes!!!! THANKS FOR POSTING THIS!!!!
They just had this movie on TCM, from 1944, Bathing Beauty with Red Skelton and Esther Williams. Some movies back then were something of a variety show: comedy, swimming talents & musical numbers. Also included in the movie are some musical numbers by the great Harry James Orchestra. This would have been excellent entertainment for our WWII troops overseas….lots of pretty girls featured. This movie is loaded with all kinds of talent, in living color (unusual for the time)! My mom had a Hammond organ…..such a distinctive sound through the years from pop, jazz to rock.
The inimitable Hammond organ! Its still prominent in rock, blues and pop music concerts, with the old Hammond "B" being tenderly fetched out onto the stage before the performance. They made a few newer models without the old vacuum tubes, but nothing beats the sound of the original Hammond "tone generator".
The tone generator itself is entirely electromechanical and has nothing to do with vacuum tubes. It is only the amplification which is tube-based - the entire tone-production system (including vibrato and chorus) uses nothing but motors, gear wheels, and metal "tonewheels" rotating next to magnetic pickups. The tubes are a very minor part of the sound.
Further on the "sound" of the B3, I don't think she used a Leslie speaker on this... just judging by the sound. The Leslie is what really thrust the Hammond organs unto the modern day (1960s and on) music scene.
@@simonbeck7446... I agree that the tubes on a B3 did not contribute much to the amplified sound, except "leakage" introduced during the pre-amp signal processing of the tonewheel generation system to audio line levels prior to slamming it through a couple of Leslie 122's ;--)
OMG! I laughed so hard! This is amazing and weird in so many ways! Look at the ladies' faces! I can't define if it is real happiness or Hollywood acting. Well, I laughed and it made me happy... so... Thank you!
It’s acting…I’m sure this was their 15th take and half of them are probably hopped up on studio goofenal but hay. That’s 20th century Hollywood for ya 🤷♂️
Don't forget this is an original and nearly 100 years old. There are very few such as Ethel Smith and the Hammond B. By the way, I owned the company in the 1980th.
Bob Margolin of The Muddy Waters Band shared this with me, as a major influence on the Great Garth Hudson of THE BAND who we were both fortunate and honored to have played and recorded with..
She WAS ! After this film, the home organ craze began and lasted well into the 80s ! Heartbreaking to have to give up my Hammond when my parents gave up their home 4 years ago
@@MYGREYGARDENS - correct regarding popularity of home organs. At one time you had nearly a dozen brands available in the USA: Allen, Baldwin, Hammond, Lowrey, Story & Clark, Wersi, Wurlizter, Thomas, Technics, Yamaha, and a couple of more I can't ever remember. I had a Lowrey in my home until I was about 30, then bought a Technics F3. Now I have a Technics F5. Ethel Smith had a lot of record albums out and paved the way for a new generation of organists. After her, the electronic organ was far more appreciated.
It is difficult to even give organs of this size away anymore. Every time I see an add for one for sale I think good luck. Unless it is a Hammond you are probably going to have to give it away.
She also did the "Blame It On The Samba" segment for Disney's omnibus animated musical "Melody Time" (1948). Donald Duck and Joe Carioca (the parrot) dance around her, then heat things up by sticking a match in Ethel's toes and lighting it!

@@SoggySandwich80 I went back and looked again, to make sure I was right, and as the camera pans around Ethel and the console, you can see the chorus Drawbar for a second or two, and it is pulled out (on). For reference the Hammond BC was manufactured Dec 1936 to Nov 1942 (about 13000 made).
Ethel Smith probably blew a lot of vacuum tubes when she played a Hammond Organ. They were so popular RCA Victor made vacuum tubes just for Hammond Organs. Others such as Conn were not forgotten either!

The fantastic and fabulous Ethel Smith playing a typical music of my country Brazil, in a film with another Diva....Esther Willians.

I suppose having 5 feet helped a lot with playing the bass pedals. ;-)

Interesting 360-degree panning shot from about 1:05 to 1:47. This is one of the earliest examples, and couldn’t have been easy to film.

Absolutely epic! Anyone who can play like this in blue strappy heels is a true star.
LOVE, love love this.. Her outfit.. and shoes... beautiful..that color is fabulous..
Yeah and she is kind of ok at organ I guess
I dig the victory roll in her hair and percussion. Love it, too.

If UA-cam had been around when my dear old dad was alive, he would have been playing this non stop. He loved Ethel Smith’s playing.

The fastest version of Tico Tico I've ever heard by several magnitudes. A superhuman.
Fits well with the original title of the song, "Sparrow in the Cornmeal".
Deu a preula! As Gringas tiraram onda! Awesome, the ladies made a great song!
Verdade. Elas tocaram muito, difícil ver gringo tocando assim! Arrasaram . Se foram elas mesmo né.
Isso é português de Portugual?
How enchanting!!! Love the music and the hair styles of the 40's
Two people named Smith helped popularize the Hammond organ: in the 1940s it was Ethel Smith, and in the 1950s Jimmy Smith.

and next to nothing more difficult for the band to move.

She was a genius on the Hammond and the Hammond B was a genius in itself. Here are two genii.
She was awesome! Some speed on those hands!!! Great talent!

There's more talent in Ethel Smith' s fingers than you will find today! without looking far and wide! Extremely talented! real talent!
