whomever that trumpeter is he sure is - a quote louis once said of someone - where is this footage from - i have some ideas, but not certain ... the trumpeter is very good, and the dancers makes us know that a LOT of great harlem jazz was merely back up for floorshows
The footage is from a tape called Harlem Swings, which is a tape that someone has put bits & pieces of shots of Harlem bands from the 40's, but all of a sudden this appears from nowhere, and does not really belong....but it is an interesting clip...so no idea where it was shot, are who is playing...
