Don:

Tommy Sargent is deceased--I think within the last 10 years.

I remember Tommy playing Steel and Lead Guitar with Texas Jim Lewis at the 97th Street Corral Dance Hall on So. Main St. in Los Angeles around 1945. This Dance Hall was origanally called the Rainbow Ballroom when it was built probably in the 20's or 30's.
