[Dixielandjazz] More Dinning sisters - audio clip

[Hal Vickery]

My first reaction was that they sounded like a combination of the Boswell
Sisters and the Andrews Sisters, the latter not just because of the one
sounding a lot like Patty but also in their harmonies.

Interesting clip. Certainly some Boswell influences there, but my ear 
detects one of the sisters trying to sound very much like Patty Andrews, 
while another one has overtones of Billie Holiday. Judging by the photos 
at the website, they were quite attractive ladies, too.
