Slowly I Turned

Here are two performances of the famed Joey Faye or Harry Steppe (take your pick) Vaudville bit "Slowly I Turned".

The first by The Three Stooges was filmed in 1943 for their movie short Good Luck Mr. Yates and was subsequently cut from the film.

Columbia liked the bit well enough to save the footage and wrote Gents Without Cents around it.

Here are Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard.

Niagra Falls.

 

 

Next from their 1944 film, Lost in a Harem, here are Abbott and Costello along with Murray Leonard performing their version of the same bit.

Of the versions available, I took the entire scene including Lou Costello's 30 second exit as it includes one of my all time favorite Lou Costello moments.
