RIP Keely Smith

Mitch Drumm · From: Frostbite Falls, hard by Veronica Lake

Just read that Keely passed away at 89 on Dec 16.

She and her first husband and this other guy in the pic below are all among the top 5 acts that I wished I had seen and will never get the chance. Along with maybe Ray Price, Bob Wills, and I dunno who else. Maybe Tex Williams in about 1948.

Mike Neer · From: NJ

She was terrific. And, according to some of my friends who'd worked with her, a real gem of a lady.

I'm always floored by the performances with Louis on the Ed Sullivan Show.
