The words inscribed on his tombstone in New Orleans: "When the end

comes, I know they'll say Just a Gigolo, as life goes on without me"...

What gives, Rajat?  I remember Louis Prima from the 1950s with Keely Smith in "Old Black Magic," etc.  The exposure date says 2011, but Prima was long dead by the turn of the century.  Exactly what is the link here between this man and Prima?

Nice shot, in any case.

Uh- Lannie... I guess I misled you. This upload should make it clearer... a statue in Musical Legends Park - a courtyard in the French Quarter - cafe, bar and live music... btw, that's Pete Fountain in the foreground

Rajat,

I wish I had known you were in New Orleans! I live only 50 miles away and I love meeting photo.net friends. My husband did all of the statues in this park. Next weekend he is unveiling one of Irma Thomas. If you ever come back, please let me know.
