Keely Smith, Prima, & Butera

Video Finds of the Day

Almost forgotten greats.

Keely Smith and Louis Prima had a great chemistry. He was wired, she was dead-pan, but they worked perfectly together.



This one shows Keely Smith off.

Louis Prima & Keely Smith - All Night Long 1956



This next video has three songs. The first two are sung by Prima. The third is sung by Sam Butera.

Louis Prima & Sam Buterra - Oh Babe -My House- Fever



The last is a super rendition of Night Train by Butera, while Keely Smith looks on unmoved. Priceless. "Embedding disabled" so go see it at YouTube.
