Theassociation has been a happy and prosperous one for both. It was in 1939 when with Hosea Sapp, former Louis Armstrong, trumpetman, they formed a trio which has grown to the present group.Fast rising to the top as one of the nations top ladies of piano and song, Camille has to her credit such famous tunes, composed by her, as“X-Temporaneous Boogie,” “Camille’s Boogie,” “Groovey Blues,” “Thrill Me,” and the current juke box favorite, “You Don’t Love Me.” She will appear at Riverside Park, Thursday, May 19, with Roy Milton's “Salad Senders.”WILL APPEAR HERE
