It’s really cool to see this. I always heard OF this band but never heard them play. (I grew up in Western MA in the 80s so I knew Jacky and Billy in the Bay State 4.)

That was my father Carl Zieminski Sr. play saxophone for.Gene. He has now been gone for almost 9 years and just seeing him enjoying himself and doing what he truly loved playing music brought a smile to my face today as well as a tear to my eye.

My grandmother sang backup vocals on this song for the original recording. The man who was the guitarist for Larry lives right near me. I listen to hip hop, soul, rock, funk, disco, house music, and nothing like this but I feel a very strange warmth with this music. It may be strange to say but I somehow have such a strange history with this group. Even if it all happened 50 years before I was born.

derail14 Happy Louie just celebrated his 85th birthday. He lives in Massachusetts with his wife, Julcia. He has Parkinson’s disease and is confined to a wheelchair. He has had Parkinson’s for 21 yrs. I went to a dance honoring him a couple of months ago at Pulaski Park in Massachusetts, a benefit, called POLKAS FOR PARKINSON’S. This will be an annual event. I urge anyone that can go.....please attend. A large crowd with BOX ON, out of Michigan providing the music. Louie did sing a couple of songs with the band. There wasn’t a dry eye in the place. A very moving day!

When I was 12 my uncle took me to Polonia Acres the Polanka in Randolph NJ to see Happy Louie and I was hooked ever since when I started to drive we used to go all to see him he came to Jersey quite a bit in the 70's and 80's, I used to bring my reel to reel tape deck and record I have many recordings then one day Julcia called me to ask if I would send them some of the tapes because they wanted to release a CD of live recordings before I could send them the tapes someone else beat me to it and they released a live CD Julcia sent me a copy, then they released Happy Louie live volume 2 which is a collection of the recordings I made it is available on Amazon and I don't know about ITunes, I sent her a lot of tapes all masters I did record them onto CD before I sent them so I have backups.
