I'm so thankful for the Picou Youtube clip of him playing "his" tune, High
Society.  It would've been nice if the camera had focused a little more on
the band he was playing with, but I'm grateful, in the end, to see so much
of one of the last surviving Greats, playing "his" tune.  He clearly hadn't
been in practice for some time, and, indeed, died a couple years later, but,
golly:  Alphonse Picou playing High Society.  It still blows me away that
I've now "seen" him....
