One of the greatest vocal groups in the history of American music, the Mills Brothers , with an innate sense of swing , unparalleled harmonic perfection, phenomenal virtuosity, flexibility and vocal technique, invented the genre of " vocal instrumentalists ", imitating with astonishing perfection all the wind instruments in the orchestra. Their success was considerable, equaling those of Bing Crosby , Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald with whom they recorded memorable records which can be found here in our selection of their greatest titles.
