[78-L] Cosmo Records

[Dan Van Landingham]

I knew of Socolow for his tenor sax work.He did an album about 40 years ago with some kid named 
Scott Hamilton,who got rich playing the same kind of tenor sax I played for 40 years and was criticised
for it because it was not current.

Socolow was primarily known as a tenor saxophonist, but he also played oboe.
He played tenor at my Bar Mitzvah, as it turned out, but I only found that
out when I looked at photos some years later.
