Buck Privates - Andrews Sisters

Andrews Sisters

The Andrews Sisters perform four songs during the course of the film: You're a Lucky Fellow, Mr. Smith, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Bounce Me Brother with a Solid Four, and (I'll Be With You When It's) Apple Blossom Time. Their performance of "Bounce Me Brother with a Solid Four" also features one of the more famous Lindy Hop dance sequences of the swing era. Many dancers from Los Angeles, including Dean Collins, Jewel McGowan, Ray Hirsch, and Patty Lacey, are featured.

The composers of the songs sung by the Andrews Sisters are Don Raye and Hughie Prince, who appear in the film as new recruits alongside Abbott and Costello.
