Given the economic times -- there's a depression going on, after all -- coupled with the social climate, one kinda wonders how these musicians made a living. It must've been a case of art for the sake of art. Again, we must salute YouTube!
Probably an online search would turn something up-I need to find some too. Who was your granddad? I used to play w/a trombonist named Zalman "Porky" Cohen, one of two or three white musicians who performed with Lucky. He was a great musician, and also played with Charlie Barnet and Benny Goodman. I knew him when he was with ROOMFUL OF BLUES, who I played with later on.
