The Joe Loss Orchestra - The Peanut Vendor (NME-1964)

Sorry, correction. Ross died on November 24th, 2 weeks after his wife died. Respect to his family.

Sad to report that Singer Ross McManus, (playing the bongos) died on November 27th 2011. Tiny man with a deep brown voice. RIP.

Some may recognize the gentleman in the spectacles handling percussion duties as Ross McManus. He has a son who has enjoyed some degree of notoriety in the music business. Declan is his name, I think....

@MikeBlitzMag You can really see the resemblance. Horrible performance, sadly.

This is pretty bad.....almost unrecognizable......listen to Xavier Cugat or Anacani from the Lawrence Welk show.

As much as I liked the Joe loss Orchestra and danced to it, this is worst noisy version that i have heard of this excellent Rumba, but thank you for posting.

The Peanut Vendor was a classic piece made popular in the 60's.
