The trombone player on the left as you watch the video looks like Jerry
Colonna who later became a sidekick for Bob Hope. The tenor soloist on
"Tiger
Rag" also sounds familiar - can anyone identify him?

Thanks;

> I'm posting this mainly out of academic interest. Here's probably the only
film clip ever made featuring Berigan (he also sings forgettably!) playing
in 1936 - the year I was born - with the Fred Rich Orchestra. The Rich band
was more of a competent dance outfit than a jazz band but here and there it
has its moments.
