winter blues

When I'm feeling grumpy, I like to listen to one of my favorite Lous.
(I have a few, including Armstrong and Costello.)


Louis Prima, NYC, c.1940 by Murray Korman, Frank Driggs collection

Louis Prima's Just a Gigalo is probably my most popular song for winter dancing, these days. He's the voice of King Louis, from the Jungle Book. His voice is jazzy and makes my shoulders bounce.  If you're feeling a little  down about not being able to go outside, get up and shake it off. I can't resist.
I love this man, for brightening my days.
