  • That's disrespectful, someone should have got ol' Frankie up and danced with him ;)

  • What are these two songs?

  • @Sigurd82 It is really one tune that modulates from F to Bb. It's Hamp's Boogie, by Lionel Hampton. The band is the Harlem Renaissance Orchestra, and I'm playing the alto solo you hear in the beginning. This was an extroaordinary send off for an extraordinary man.

  • @customkey Great, thanks! Nice playing too.  I'm a baritone player, and I got to meet Frankie at Lindyfest in Houston a few years ago.

  • @customkey Great solo, man.

  • @joemaranzano  Thank you!

  • This is the right funeral for a real dancer.

  • WOW......I never thought a funeral could be this much fun, and so uplifting. Thanks for sharing this amazing video with those of us around the world. I am in England, and was lucky enough to have a wonderful dance with Frankie when he came over here to teach us all. Thanks xxx
