Regarding 1956 Beatty Show Band: Buckles: Vic Robbins opened the Season. He retired when the show went down.. The chutes went under the right hand drop leaf of the old bandstand. Ray Aguilar( good man ) took over when the show reopened and moved the cally back behind. Fred Mullins went to Anaheim Disney. From the rear I don’t think that is Mullins. There was a good player from Jacksonville FL. Les ??? I know he was there in 1959. Aguilar was still there. I played Palisades Park with the show that year on my way to open Hunt Bros. May 1. I was in the Army spring of 1955 through spring of 1958 Joined Cristiani spring of 1958 and only saw one other show that year Hunt Bros. Kindest regards, Chuck |

Thanks for the info, Chuck.
Do you have any idea what happened to Ray Winder?
CHUCK SCHLARBAUM is a gifted conductor and composer, as you all know.
I have watched (and heard) him walk into a rehearsal and distribute the music to a 32 piece band and make them sound like a symphony orchestra!
Or take a 3 piece ensemble and make it sound like a great Circus band!
He is also a natural born Circus music composer.
I love his "VELOCITY GALLOP"!!
