> Now who can tell us the band members in the Dukes? Frank, Freddie, Papa  Jac,
and Jerry Fuller, of course, and maybe Jimmie Atlas? Who was on piano, bass,
and drums?<
 
Dear Jack,
The Dukes' personnel for the film "It's Trad Jazz" probably used the
recording group at that time, although I have no definite file references,
other than a separate note that Barney Mallon was included in the band for
the film. 
Frank Assunto, t; Fred Assunto, tb; Jac Assunto, bj; Jerry Fuller, cl; Gene
Schroeder, p; Barney Mallon, sb; Charlie Lodice, d.

If you want to see a clip of their performance of "By and By" (or is it "Bye
and Bye" or "Bye 'n' Bye?)" check out this <youtube> URL:

Dukes' fans will hate the last sentence in the <youtube> caption.
Kind regards,
Bill.
