Red Nichols feature Nichols 1929
Did you know that Eddie Condon could sing?
Here is a feature from 1929 of cornettist Red Nichols and his Five Pennies
Red Nichols had a long time musical relationship with Miff Mole. Is this Miff, and when the If is yes why didn't he got featured? I was informed by yvesfrancois it was Herb Taylor. This is probably the earliest film of Pee Wee Russell on clarinet. Who is the drummer? Dave Tough, Vic Burton or Chauncey Morehouse.
Eddie Condon plays on a mandoline guitar as well on banjo.
Of course Eddie switched to 4 string tenor guitar. Why?
Eddie"s quote:
"This all came of a conversation I had with [John] Steinbeck once when we were standing in a men's room somewhere. Steinbeck asked me why I didn't play the banjo any more and I told him that went out with the high-button shoes."
Eddie had more famous quotes:
"The boppers flat their fifths. We consume ours."
About bandleader Ted Lewis:
"Ted Lewis could make the clarinet talk. What it said was 'put me back in the case!'"

Eddie Condon - What a singer! What a banjo player!

Todo un placer ver y escuchar, al final, a Red Nichols interpretar "China Boy". Es la primera vez que escucho a Eddie Condon (cantando) ya que, cuando toca su guitarra nunca se oye nada.

This song was first issued in Chicago in 1924 and only recently (January, 2020) went into the public domain (although the Eddie Condon recording could still be copyright protected). Actually there were many hit songs created in Chicago in 1924 including the first boogie woogie song, Chicago Stomp, and the first song promoted into a national hit by radio, It Ain't Gona' Rain No Mo'. For more information, read Chicago's Music Industry.

Drummer is almost certainly George Beebe (Nichols' regular drummer at the time)...the two trumpeters are Tommy Thunen and John Egan. Pianist probably Irving Brodsky.

That's 20 yr. old Benny Goodman on clarinet, seated next to young Glenn Miller on trombone, along with Eddie Condon doing a respectable style of singing and banjo playing, and Artie Schutt on piano. Ida Sweet As Apple Cider, an Eddie Cantor tune, comes first on highly cherished old film.

Bob Connelly That's Pee Wee Russell on clarinet, not Benny Goodman. And It's Herb Taylor on trombone. Glenn Miller wore glasses, remember?

Yep , I knew he sang. When he was with the guy ( his name evades me right now) who used to play the comb with tissue paper , so brilliantly.

@osscouter drummer ?, EC, but...Irving Brodsky p., Pee Wee cl, Herb Taylor tb. I don't know about the other horns off the top of my head, but you might be right (though I don't think the one on the left is Kaminsky...thought that would be neat!

Certamente no Gene Krupa alla batteria,ma ho dei dubbi anche circa il clarinetto;mi sembra più Frank Teschemacher che Benny Goodman.Saluti cordiali

a pesar de los años que bien que suenan, el clarinetista es Pee Wee Russel no Benny

What is the material in front of the DRUM-SET at the left side of the stage? My HERO ......Red Nichols ......in a kind of "Charlie Chaplin show" ....better not! Same I feel about Eddie Condon' s singing act. Red and Eddie ......both absolute SUPER STARS very bad coached in this video?
