- And here now, finally, the third part of the "Great Mills Brothers Story" -- a gorgeous group who had been the idol of so many following ensembles, such as the Golden Gate Quartet. The three brothers (Harry, Herbert and Donald) had been together on stage for more than 55 consecutive years. (John jr., the oldest brother had already passed away in 1936 at the age of 26.)

Each of them has their own unique style/personality and talents. I liked them all and enjoy their music very much so.
The Mills Brothers Story is a great piece.
Really hated to accept this’s the last episode.
Thanks again for sharing. I’m appreciated.
I saw this wonderful group in a supper club in Illinois in the 1940’s. I was a little girl who loved their song Paper Doll. I am so happy to have found them on UTube. Brings up so many wonderful memories. God bless their souls and their families.
Thank you
They dont make voices like The Mills Brothers anymore. Simply beautiful.
THERE WILL NEVER BE A GROUP TO SURPASS THE SOUND OF THE MILLS BROTHERS. WATCHING THESE VIDEOS THAT i'VE BOOKMARKED BRINGS BACK THE PAST WITH MIXED FEELINGS OF SADNESS AND JOY. THEY WERE MY FATHER'S FAVORITES. MY FATHER DIED IN 1972 AND WATCHING THESE VIDEOS BRINGS MY FATHER BACK TO ME.
The greatest!! Timeless!!
Thank you.... just beautiful!
Grew up on Big Band and all these cool groups!! Mom and Dad would dance to them, later on when Mom got Dementia/Alzheimer’s we would play this music and she would sing along, word for word. Amazing what good music can do, miss you mom😞
I grew up listening and marveling at the Mills Brother's music. They were my father's favorite group and mine as well. So much talent! I admire and love these guys. Thank you for putting this beautiful tribute together.
Thanks for sharing. My grandparents turned me on to these cats in the late 60s when I was just a pup. Harry, Donald, and Herbert are still the best sounding trio I heave heard to this day.
Thank you!
.............. My only complaint about all three videos is they were too short. i could have listened to part 10........................... I was glued to all three. What a treasure these guys were. Todays groups should listen to these guys and learn........ And never a vulgar word in their songs. Thanks for sharing this with us.
They were the best !
A real gem this documentary. The Mills brothers will always be insurmountable! Thaks!! Hugs from Chile!
In the mid 90s I had a chance to see Donald and his son John perform in Piqua, Ohio. I could not get off work and to this day, I regret it.
PERFECTION! I’ll always love them!
What an amazing story and talent, these guys are very inspiring!!
I really felt sorry for Harry Mills, such a great stage personality. In the later engagements he had lost so much weight! You could tell he was in bad shape. Some don't know it but Dean Martin based his stage presence based on Harry Mills. These guys were the greatest, many thanks Bruno for posting these videos so the Mills Bros. will be preserved.
God gave us these gifts
I could listen to this group all day. As a child I heard them and now decades later I still love their sound.
He was dying of cancer x
Yess! Been looking for this. There’ll never be another group like this. Simply the best.
such a beautiful life and career! The Mills Brothers will live for eternity!
Love these guys God Bless them
There will never be a group like the Mills Bros. God bless all the mills family.
Bruno thank you so much for imercing me in such great music. I've spent the whole evening reminiscing my uncles when they used to play there records of the Mills Bros Most of them 78s
They were the greatest!
They were simply wonderful!
The story of this talented, successful, family of performers deserve of course a book regaling there triumphs in show business. Not just the longevity but the barriers traversed and global native 🧕🏿🦹🏾♂️👌🏾🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🥰😇
Thank you so much for finding this video and uploading it. Wonderful story and such great, great interviews. I'm guessing it was the Danish Radio Big Band on the Tivoli footage. One of the best big bands in the world.
I love all of their music. Thank you for posting these videos. I hope they last forever on You Tube.
Fabulous I love them my hero's best group ever :)
Thank you so much for posting this❤❤ They' are true legends
They also played in Canada. I know because I attended their performances in the 70's.
THE MILLS BROTHER. UNICOS E INIGUALABLES!!👏👏👏👏
thank you for the upload. did my heart a lot of good. they were such a great group. 🙏
What moron gave this a thumbs' down? This is the best of the best!! Thank you for sharing :)
God bless them
Great. Thanks for posting.
Fantastic
Brilliant, thank you!!
They were the best
I don't know Herberts voice but I bet it was wonderful but he didn't sing many solos. However Donald and Harry who i have heard both have the most beautiful voices and the most talented musicianship i have ever heard in my life of looking for great singers.
Wonderful.
Grandissimi!
Good grief the 30s to the 80s
DEAN MARTIN GOT INTO MUSIC..NOT BECAUSE OF FRANK...?NOOOOO MILL BROTHERS.....

Crappy audio!
Idiot.
You try singing 3 piece harmony through a Unidyne from the 60’s. THEN you can comment on the audio. These guys were true masters. In any situation, and conditions, any size audience. Battle conditions, and they Always delivered with a smile. And your comment is “crappy audio”. They were true gentleman and never had an unkind word for anyone.
Fantastic
