Sam Butera

Sam Butera is dead. You probably don't know the name. He was a bandleader and played saxophone for Louis Prima. After Prima died, he headed his own act. I caught it once. It was pretty much Prima's act.

The guy had spirit, and kept alive a type of performing that barely existed any more.
