Rhythm and Blues Revue / Basin Street

Rhythm and Blues Revue (1955) This is a collection of exciting R&B performances from the mid 1950's, filmed at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem, New York City. Every performance is a gem. The genial host, Willie Bryant, keeps things moving and the lowbrow comedy from Nipsey Russell and Mantan Moreland helps create a wonderful "revue" feel for the show. 71 Minutes Basin Street Revue (1956) More R&B performances from the mid 1950's, filmed at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem, New York City. 41 Minutes.
