6:12 Love seeing my Grandfather on the drums!!!!! I sure do miss him!!!!

Welk himself, like his "Champagne Music", was rather stiff; Red and his boys are quite a relief here!

Hello, I remember when she was launched. I never thought that I would hear of her being decommissioned. I met a Sailor that served aboard her in the Chart Room. He mentioned to me that she was the fastest ship in the Navy.

Sweet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too sad your end!!! Great movie, specially showing my city Rio in the beggining of the 70.

Magnificent

The F4 is still a bad ass looking plane!!!!

My dad was on this ship until his honorable discharge in 1972 as a boatswains mate for the Captain. It's cool be able to see a glimpse of what he saw. Thank you.

Some of the places that Red Nichols and His Five Pennies perfromed at were 1,500 capacity restaurant/nightclubs the Bamboo Gardens and Golden Pheasant in Cleveland that were owned by my grandfather!!!

When I was younger this music sucked, at least I thought that at the time. As I see it now, I can really appreciate their talent...great music !

Let History never forget... The name... Enterprise!!

BLOODY WONDERFULL !!!!

Wispering

Just saw this video and want to thank you. I was in VA-196 and was on the cruise from Norfolk to Alameda and then to WESTPAC. Too bad we had our Valparaiso port call cancelled. But couldn't have spent those years with a better group of guys or on a better ship. BZ

Well, some folks received credit and needn't enter the establishment by the back door!🙄

Wonderful people fantastic musicians. I had never seen a bass sax, very impressive player, beautiful touch.

Lee Wiley was the ruination of several men, Bunny Berigan among them. Supposedly after their divorce, Jess Stacy commented, "They didn't burn all the witches at Salem." But, oh man, she could sing!

May I share this in my page? It looks a lot like Thunderbird CC and not Arizona. I could be wrong though

I was on the Big E when she still had the “dome”. ‘74 ‘75. We did the evacuation of Saigon.

Served aboard her 72-73 1st division. DL. Neal

I was aboard then. Down in #3MMR, making that steam!!!

Ese sax bajo suena hermoso 👍👌🎵

Grandioso 👌🥳

Very rare!!! It's like vlogging even before digital cameras. Amazing!

bass sax - you don't see that very often.

Look at that trumpet guy’s hair. He looks like he’s playing in Benny Goodman’s swing band in like 1938.

I have BW photos from 1930s that my dad said were of Joe Rushton. He is sporting a mustache and one shows him playing a clarinet; the other a xylophone. Looking at this video, I think it is the same man. My father played trumpet with Barney Richards and his band - originally from Chicago.

I remember the movie they made of him. Fun show!!

Thank you for this video as I was attached to VF-142 and on the Enterprise on this cruise thru Rio and around the Horn. It brings back a lot of good memories of my past.

I was on board her as we steamed down and around the tip on our way to Norfolk / Newport News in 70. Became a Shellback on the way when we crossed on the Pacific side. Early out for me early November 70. I was an SK-3 on the commissary side of it. Made two deployments to Tonkin Gulf 68 & 69. Lots of good memories except the day of the fire. Lots of bad memories there. Anchors aweigh my brothers.

My dad MM1 John R Rogers served on the Big E during this time.

Thank you so much for posting these performances. I have a file that I add to whenever I find performances of Red that I wasn't aware of.

What these guys could do when they didn't have to play all the smaltzy stuff. As a kid my dad and I watched until the Pete Fountain number.

I read the new carrier is being built from steel off the old ship....

What? The members of the band didn't break up their instruments or set fire to them? And you call this entertainment? (Damn right, I do!!!!)

Dixie land JAZZ at its best. Watch the movie. " The 5 Pennies" starring Danny Kaye as Red Nichols. On youbtube or TCM ON tV. Story of Reds band. Great movie. 🎺🥁🎷🎹🎺

Was with HC-Det 4 as rescue air crew on that around the Horn trip, as well as the following WestPac cruise. Had a couple rescues during that time. Rio was great!

Hey I saw my squadron V-27 on board in 1971 I was a sophomore in high school that year , I went aboard in 1976 with V-27 serve 2 west-pac's as a plane captain it sure was an adventure like they say . Have a lot of memories 😹😹

The last image of Grofé and Bargy is to make a portrait of it. Magnificent duo

Beautiful beautiful. Thank you very very much

My family stayed at the Thunderbird Hotel for eight nights when I was ten years old in 1966. It looked a lot different by then; the big Thunderbird sign was gone, and a neon front that read THUNDERBIRD in huge letters was all I remember in front of the entrance. Years later, around 1990, I stayed at the El Rancho Hotel in Las Vegas, and I thought the pool looked familiar; I was told by an employee that the El Rancho was a remodeled version of the Thunderbird, but I thought it lacked all the charm of the old place.

Bix was already sliding because of boot leg alcoholic poisoning when only 27..we dont know how he would have progressed if he had lived longer..Who was the better between he and Red...To quote The Duke in Rio Bravo..'I'd hate to have to have to live on the difference'

Gran dominio del instrumento.

nice technique
