Celebrating Louis Jordan

The saxophonist, vocalist, songwriter and bandleader, Louis Jordan was born today in 1908. He was known as the “King of the Jukebox” and was famous for performing jazz and blues songs. I saw a recording of him playing “Let the Good Times Roll” and because it made me smile, I’m sharing it here in the hope it has the same effect on others. Yo can listen to the song here. As always, I send best wishes and much love to everyone now and always.
