1963 - Charlie Love, traditional jazz cornetist from Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana passed away on this day. He was born in 1885, and played in and out of New Orleans until 1925, when he joined John Robichaux in the Lyris Theater Pit Orchestra. He worked dance hall in the city through the thirties, and at the Happy Landing in the forties. Throughout his life he played in the brass bands and was a member of the 'Tuxedo Brass Band'. He spent his later years preserving John Robichaux's band's book of rags. Charlie died in New Orleans. |
