    A little rehash from a posting I did last year:

    Here's a great video by video master Docludi--

    This time out featuring Herbert 'Whitey' White's WHITEY'S LINDY HOPPERS from the 1941 film HELLZAPOPPIN' with the addition of Tammi Terrell's 1966 solo version of TWO CAN HAVE A PARTY--written by Harvey Fuqua, Johnny Bristol, & Thomas Kemp:

    And a SPECIAL BONUS:
    Swing Bud Films production of a video tribute to dancer Frankie Manning--

    "FRANKIE MANNING: AMBASSADOR OF SWING"
    [[11 mins. & you'll be wishing there was more!):

    Thank you, Docludi, for pointing out this terrific video by Swing Bud Films. And, of course, for the ones you've created.

    Most of M and T's bigger hits tended to have a sweeter sound to them, but I liked it when they went for the "stomper" song, such as this one and "Give In, You Just Can't Win."

    I've always loved Marvin & Tammi's "Two Can Have A Party". IMO, I think it would have made a great single -- stronger than "If I Could Build My World Around You".

    I agree PMG - there is something very "uplifting" in this song.

    Their best track for me. The Tammi solo version is fine but Marvin's vocal takes it to another level.
