For the next few years, he played in bands led by Johnny Wiggs, Bill Lustig, Johnny Bayerdorffer, Sharkey Bonano and Monk Hazel. He became famous while playing with Bob Crosby and the Bobcats in the mid-thirties. In the sixties, he was co-leader of the 'Riverboat Dandies', who enjoyed moderate success on the club tour of the US. He was still playing infrequently in the 1980's. |
