Dig Bellson, age 19, drumming behind Benny Goodman and Carmen Miranda singing "Paducah" in The Gang's All Here, directed by Busby Berkeley (1943). Bellson gets such good exposure in this clip that you don't even need to check the "LB" on the drums to make sure it's him.

Early Nov, Mr. Bellson suffered a fall in the L.A. area and was taken to the Hospital and had been in rehab for it ever since.

The hip thing again. It seems when seniors break their hip...it’s just about game over.
