about

Two musician friends talk about Art and Los Angeles, jamming on the Eastside and in the Barrio, in the area that became the Latin Strip.

lyrics

This is an unusual glimpse into some forgotten L.A. history. The Latin Strip, a jazz scene that existed for awhile in East Los Angeles after WWII. In Episode 26, I read the words of bass player, Hersh Hamel and drummer "Freddy Rivera", close friends of Art's in those days.
