RIP to a patriotic singer and one of the last remnants of a time period when America truly stood and fought for freedom rather than against it.

Here’s Patty and her sisters singing with Bing Crosby in one of the better “Road” pictures-

Maybe the female members of ABBA could team up with Olivia Newton-John to become an Andrew Sisters tribute group.

My parents had most, if not all, of the Andrews Sisters’ recordings. I grew up listening to their music and the music of so many other artists of that era. They don’t make music like that anymore.

Rest in peace, Ms. Andrews.

The Andrews Sisters: "In the Mood"

They sing this a bit slower than the instrumental versions so that the lyrics can be clearly heard.

Just damn.

The 'Rum and Coca Cola' was a classic for me and the girlfriend from the islands. Memories.

I'll never sit under an apple tree again.

Andrews Sisters. They’ll be missed.

They were a little before my time but they really could harmonize.

“Boogy Woogy Bugle Boy” was a true classic.

The early Las Vegas mob guys (from the NY area) took delight in telling stories about tapping the Andrew sisters.
Not what you want to hear ... but part of Las Vegas lore.

We've lost almost all the good ones and they aren't being replaced.
