  • Here's Duke Ellington with Ivie Ivy Anderson in I Got It Bad and That Ain't Good soundie. Some of the girls in the soundies were actresses and dancers on stage and screen. The lady standing by the piano is dancer/actress Louise Franklin, who appeared in over 30 Hollywood films, as a dancer and actress. She was in Cabin In The Sky and Stormy Weather with Lena Horne. She was in Duke Ellington's Jump For Joy. Other ladies in the soundie who were dancers/actresses are Artie Young and Millie Monroe, who was a stand-in for Lena Horne in Cabin In The Sky.

    Ivie's remarkable and remarkably individual talent has lasted through the decades. She has not been forgotten and is still gaining new admirers. Always with health problems she did not live long enough to realize she had become a living legend.

    This brought tears to my eyes as I thought of an act of kindness by Duke Ellington at a nightclub in San Francisco right after the heartbreaker ending of the 1962 World Series. To review a bit of baseball history, Giants slugger Willie McCovey hit a scorching line drive which Yankees second baseman Bobby Richardson caught for the final out with the tying and winning runs on second and third. The Yankees won the game 1-0. After the game McCovey, a fan of Ellington and other such luminaries, went to the nightclub. Ellington saw him and knew about the game, and he instructed his soloist to change the title phrase to "He hit it good, and that ain't bad." McCovey smiled in response.

    So many musicians that worked with Duke Ellington haven't been well known. I'm glad to learn about Ivy Anderson. Especially since I share her first name.

      Why didn’t they credit her on the record, she carried the song for ‘Take the A Train’
      Wait, is she the vocalists? Or are my ears playing tricks

      And, most important, go to her records with the Ellington groups (1932/1942). Her true legacy is there.

    Thank you for this treat on the Tube today. I've had the record for years but never saw the Soundie. I'm always way off in the way I have singers pictured just based on the sound of their voices and the same applies as to the way I had Ivie Anderson pictured mentally.

    I'm sitting here in the morning listening to Ivie Anderson, whom I usually, almost always, enjoy. But this song "Cotton" has got to go! lol! When you listen to the lyrics, you'll know what I mean. For a moment, I thought my dear sister had lost her mind! lol!!!

    Yeah. The drummer with the brushes is Sonny Greer. He was Duke's drummer from the start of the band to 1950 due to his unreliability and addiction to alcohol. I don't think they saw each other again after that. Sad ending for two geniuses together :/

      It’s very much jazz. In fact, I’ve heard the original melody originated from a random off-hours improvisation from the band’s alto sax player Johnny Hodges.
