Louis Prima Jr.

Documentary about the mid-20th century Vegas bandleader and trumpeter Louis Prima, who showed the world what a rock show could be.

A retrospective of rare performances highlighting the many phases of Prima's remarkable 50+ year career. Culled from the basements and shelves of TV and motion picture archives, this DVD presents the very best of those performances - not only the BEST, but the rarest! Featured artists include Keely Smith, Gia Maione, Sam Butera, Jimmy Vincent, The Witnesses, and Sarah Spiegel.

The story of the big names that have shaped the musical genres, plus an occasional stopgap for the new rock 'n' roll - comedy.
