fact
1961 - Tony Almerico, a trumpeter, bandleader, disc jockey and a native of New Orleans, Louisiana passed away on this day at the age of 56. He was part of the Italian jazz players which included Sharkey Bonano, Peter Lacaze, Giuseppe Alessandra, and Baroque Dominic. People are introduced to Almerico from his recordings with Lizzie Miles. But in addition, Almerico's own bands cut a variety of sides over the years for labels such as Imperial, Viking, and Dot. He can be considered to have done more than all of his peers. It is hard to come up with an example of a more tireless promoter of the city's music. By the mid-'50s he had developed a second career as a nationally broadcast disc jockey. His radio show was featured on WJMR, also the home of the illustrious host Poppa Stoppa.
