On the record they have "Shifty on Bass", as in "Shifte Henri" aka "Baron Von Shifte" (Real name John Willie Henry) from Jailhouse Rock. The Don on sax is Don Hill, Gene on Piano is Gene Gilbeaux, (They were earlier billed as The Trenier Twins and the Gene Gilbeaux Orchestra Before being joing by an older and younger brother.) Henry on Drums is Henry (Tucker) Green. Here it is Shifty Henry's replacement James (Jimmy) Johnson on Bass. Check out Jimmy Witherspoon New Orleans Woman (same band)
They were a great influence on Bill Haley´s work!!!!
