do you have more biographical informations about trumpeter DON FERRARA? Had he own bands?

He never made any recordings as a leader and I don't think he led any bands.

Lesser known perhaps, but a great pianist and occasional singer is Detroit's Bess Bonnier...

Who debuted in 1958 with a fine album on Argo! - as one of the few female leaders on that label -

I wrote her an obit in the German wikipedia

please see

@Holger - that's really nice of you!

This for certain will lead to new fans...

Vielen dank!
