I wonder why the first upload was removed. I love this musical number. Certainly one of my favorites. It's just beautiful. Beautiful music, beautiful set, and I love the "dated" effects, it adds such a surreal vintage charm. It's magical
its absolutely amazing. I truly believe one day we will see a renaissance of American culture like this!
I,m glad that the video came back
same, how can anyone possibly be offended by this joyful art?
Back in the 60s - 70s my dad used to go around the house singing Mammy to the tune of Swanee. That's how I got introduced to Al Jolson.
absolutely delightful. how can one be offended by this?
Fantastic
i have never understood what it is about Jolson's voice that is so contagious it just grabs you but why its one on its own
Sensational voice, that's the way it was then 😊
Love this video, especially the first half, b ut it's impossible not to recoil from the blackface. It was the times but chronological forgiveness only goes so far. My father loved Jolson.
Aqui desde Perú escuchando a Al Jolson, algun joven a parte de mi que le gusta estas canciones?
Yo, desde Argentina. Probablemente uno de los pocos. Saludos.
Al Jolson records, movies were all ways enjoyed in Argentina, and other South American countries. For somebody going back as far as he did, prior to mass world wide media communication, and singing mostly in English, It is incredible!@@MartinTellColomboFernandez
@margaretthomas8899 how do people know him in south america?
Via movies, and recordings, like Malta, China even@@marcoandres8830
@@marcoandres8830 He was very popular at that time. I don' t know HOW popular was here in South America or especifically here in Argentina (my country), but he was very known for he's songs. In the '50s, argentine comedian actor Alfredo Barbieri played tribute and impersonate him (doing playback) in some movies.
Jolson was incomparable. And the tune! By Harry Warren, the least famous of all the great songwriters. He, too, was great. Jolson's wife Ruby Keeler in one of her better dance performances. Unfortunately the blackface vignette is deeply cringey.
