A recording in my father's club
My father, Paul "Frenchy" La Pointe, ran a night club in the 40's in Easttown, Milwaukee. The last 5 cuts were recorded live in 1943. Can you feel the life! You would have to be a stone not to become alive during this recording! Buy it and remember what real music is like!
