Actually, the 3rd You Tube clip of my original post (I Found A New  
Baby)  is the one in which where I listed the musicians. It was  
correct in that Morey Feld was the drummer on that clip.

It was then stated incorrectly by a list mate that movie actor Jackie  
Cooper was on that 3rd clip and the musician list was wrong. You are  
indeed correct in that Cooper was sitting in on the 1st clip. I did  
not list the musos on that clip. The two clips are from the same Art  
Ford Jazz Party which may account for the confusion.

Art Ford's Jazz Party was a program in NYC that aired every Thursday  
on TV Channel 13 (then a commercial station WNTA) from May 8 1958 to  
December 25, 1958. Most a melding of black & tan Dixieland and Swing

Or just surf the web or You Tube for Art Ford Jazz Party. These cuts  
are IMO Priceless.
