Soundies: Created in the 1940s, some call them the precurser to the music video.
I found this website a few months ago:
www.archive.org/movies
click on 'Prelinger Archives" then do a search for 'Soundies.' There are many to watch. You'll need QuickTime player. There are bands and singer I've never heard of before...'Six Hits and a Miss' for one. A couple of all girl big bands, too. Let me know if you if you've found them. I'm having a great time telling friends about it.
