In answer to Ron Whitfields question: Yes that is me in the Video, a 21 year old punk kid who got to play with many great musicians of the 50' era. This was the only video to surface after many years. The band went into a small studio that shot movie shorts one evening about 6:00 P.M. and emerged about 6:00 AM the following morning. We must have gone through about 20 or more shorts featuring Tommy Duncan, Skeets McDonald, and a girl singer named "Wee Bonnie Baker". There was no rehearsing, it was like a live gig playing one song after another. I have no idea the name of the studio or what happened to the rest of the songs.

I remember "Wee Bonnie Baker" she made a number of records with the Orrin Tucker Orchestra.
Her big hit was "Oh Johnny."
