A couple clips from the 1958 film St Louis Blues, starring Nat King Cole, Eartha Kit, Pearl Bailey, Mahalia Jackson, Ruby Dee, Ella Fitzgerald and Cab Calloway. A biopic about W.C. Handy, if any film has an all star cast this one does.
I have been looking for this film on DVD for uears, but it is now streaming on Netflix.
"Chantez Les Bas" - Eartha Kit
"Beale Street Blues" - Ella Fitzgerald
"Morning Star" - Nat King Cole sings to Pearl Bailey
