Many have forgotten or have never heard clarinetist Claude Luter whose band
accompanied Sidney Bechet for many years in Paris and Europe. When Bechet
died in 1959, Luter led the procession from the church to the cemetery.
Luter's band was recorded in July 1958 at the Cannes Jazz Festival and "Down
In Honky Tonk Town". You can see and hear it here:
