The Ross Sisters Perform "Solid Potato Salad"

YouTube link.

The Ross Sisters (Aggie, Maggie, and Elmira) were singing acrobatic contortionist triplets who rose to brief fame in the 1940s. The scene above is from a 1944 MGM musical entitled “Broadway Rhythm.” The term “solid” was period slang for “excellent.”

Some people like their taters Lyonnais, some prefer French fries.
I prefer mine with mayonnaise, cole slaw on the side.
Solid potato salad, that’s solid salad, Jack,
Solid potato salad, boy, take a plate, fill it up, bring it right back.

The rest of the lyrics are searchable with Google, but they are not the point of the film segment. You will need to watch beyond the first minute of the video to see the rather remarkable athleticism of these young ladies. Via: Neatorama
