What many people seem to forget is that Louis Prima was an excellent jazz
trumpet player, heavily
influenced by Armstrong, to whom he came closer than many others claim. I
own a jazz record
to prove this. Don't let the showmanship fool you! He was good! As a result
of the "commercial"
stigma Keely never got the jazz recognition she deserved. Thinking in
boxes....
