Louis Prima (feat. Sam Butera) "Night Train"

 


From Bret "Jazz Video Guy" Primack, here is tenor saxophonist Sam Butera with the instrumental "Night Train".  This tune blurs the line between jazz, blues, and rhythm & blues.  The tune is featured on a 1965 Louis Prima special.  

Sam Butera (August 17, 1927 – June 3, 2009) was an American tenor saxophonist best noted for his collaborations with Louis Prima and Keely Smith. Butera is frequently regarded as a crossover artist who performed with equal ease in both R&B and the post-big band pop style of jazz that permeated the early Vegas nightclub scene.
