Hiya-
I know someone here can help me with this quick trivia question.

My record post today is of all 6 records Vic Berton and his Orchestra made,
(which you can read if you go here:
http://twindowlicker.livejournal.com/309624.html)

But someone wrote me wit a question I couldn't answer.   They had heard the
story of Vic Berton getting arrested with Louis Armstrong for smoking dope
in the 30's in the parking lot of the club Louis was playing... but they
want to know what was the name and location of that club?

I know I've seen a photo of Armstrong and his band in front of that club
SOMEWHERE, if it was in the Louis Documentary Gary Giddens did, or the Ken
Burns doc, or a web page, or book- I'm not sure---

Can anyone tell me?

Thanks!

Andrea
