[Harp-L] Louis Prima and a Harmonica Trio

["James" <wasabileo@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Oh man. Bless you. You know, I grew up in Bensonhurst Brooklyn and Louis Prma was a god. Every entertainer, wedding band, night club act had some gombarde` with a trumphet doing a Louis Prima Tune. 
Louis was so ahead of his time. He never gets the musical recognition he deserves but he defined swing with "Sing, Sing,Sing" and "Jump Jive and Wail" 
I have always felt he should be inducted in the Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame as he rocked the house. 
Also, he loved to play the Apollo Theatre in Harlem and he may have been one of the first non-white perfomers to be a hit.
