Louis Prima's Drummer, JIMMY VINCENT<br>and his group the GOOFERS!<br>Pre-Prima and VERY Young!

Click on above image for larger picture and better detail.

Here's a great one for hardcore Louis Prima collectors. Before Jimmy Vincent joined up with Louis Prima in 1941 at the tender age of sixteen (and continued to play with him through the 70s), he had his own Spike Jones-esque novelty jazz group, the Goofers. Jimmy and the whole band signed this great vintage promotional 8x10. Jimmy looks very young here. Could be 14 or 15 years old. We have another signed photo of Jimmy from his days with the Goofers on this site - check it out!
