I wish I were Twins Hawkins Coleman 1935
This clip came first from a program called Jazz in the Netherlands, and for one reason or another it was shortened.
I'm very happy that in a later show of jazz in the Netherlands, this piece was broadcasted in full. The Dutch Polygoon company filmed events for news casts usually shown in the movie theatres before the headliners. We now see the 1935 performance of Coleman Hawkins announcing and playing two full chorusses of "I wish I were Twins". This was a tune recorded and made popular by Fats Waller in 1934 and Coleman gave it his best with Leo de la Fuente on piano. I think this is a most unique piece of early jazz history on film.
