Oaks, PA - Music Video Distributors and Morningstar Entertainment are pleased to announce the home viewing release of That Old Black Magic for US distribution on DVD.

This program features ten black artists that changed the face of American music forever. They lived in the United States during a time when racism was legal and sometimes lethal. They confronted segregation on a daily basis in clubs, hotels and restaurants. It was also prevalent in the recording industry and in television. And, despite it all, they triumphed.

These courageous individuals stood strong and took their music where the work was - at home or abroad. CBC television captured these musical icons in Canada, north of the 49th parallel, at a unique moment in history. And to celebrate 50 years on the air, they have been restored to their original luster in this great program featuring Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Dinah Washington, Sammy Davis Jr., Cab Calloway, Billy Eckstine, Nat King Cole, Marion Anderson and Della Reese.
