Once again we remember Louis Bellson born July 6, 1924 with his Drum Battle on the Tonight Show with Buddy Rich in 1969! Do any of you remember seeing this? Bor...n Luigi Paulino Alfredo Francesco Antonio Balassoni, Louie Bellson (his own preferred spelling) and his wife, the actress and singer Pearl Bailey (married 19521990), had the second highest number of appearances at the White House (only Bob Hope had more). He was a vice president at Remo fr a period as well. In 1924, and started playing drums at three years of age. At age 15, he pioneered the double-bass drum set-up. At age 17, he triumphed over 40,000 drummers to win the Slingerland National Gene Krupa contest. In an interview in 2005 with Jazz Connection Magazine he credited Papa Jo Jones and Big Sid Catlett as influences as well as Chick Webb. "I have to give just dues to two guys who really got me off on the drums Big Sid Catlett and Jo Jones. They were my influences. All three of us realized what Jo Jones did and it influenced a lot of us. We all three looked to Jo as the 'Papa' who really did it. Gene helped bring the drums to the foreground as a solo instrument. Buddy was a great natural player. But we also have to look back at Chick Webb's contributions, too." In 1943, he performed with the Benny Goodman band and Peggy Lee in The Powers Girl,[7] the first of his many film appearances. He also appeared in 20th Century Fox's classic The Gang's All Here (1943) in the orchestra while Carmen Miranda sang "Paducah".[8] Bellson was 24 and a veteran of a U.S. Army band when he joined Danny Kaye, Louis Armstrong, Tommy Dorsey, Lionel Hampton, Charlie Barnet, Benny Carter, Mel Powell, Kenny Dorharn, Harry Babasin, Al Hendrickson, Buck Washington, and Goodman for the Howard Hawks film A Song Is Born (1948). Between 1943 and 1952, Bellson performed with Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Harry James and Duke Ellington (for whom he wrote "Skin Deep" and "The Hawk Talks").
