    Her name is Lucy Ann Polk... My father's sister. They started out as a young singing group even in their teens they were taking it but she made it to the big time my dad did too but he was in orchestra. I met her when I was 25 and she was 55 and we were hip to hip for days. I was so in love with her. That woman could walk into a room and everyone would just STOP. True story I still miss her.

      She also sang and recorded with Bob Crosby, Kay Kyser, Tommy Dorsey and Dave Pell.

      Some great players in the band! Looks like Zoot Sims's brother, Ray did that tastefully done trombone solo, and Dave Pell did the tenor sax solo. On the right end of the trombone section was Les Brown's brother, "Stumpy" on bass trombone. Great band.

      Very interesting. And he was married to Dorothy Lamour? Looks like he was quite the musician himself. Thanks for sharing that.
