The Prima Memorial Series presents a documentary screening of 'Louis Prima: The Wildest,' and a Q&A talkback with film producers Joe Lauro and Don McGlynn, moderated by Anthony J. Sylvester of the Gia Maione Prima Foundation. The screening is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served. About the film: Before Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Tom Jones, Tony Bennett or Engelbert Humperdinck ever played the stages of Vegas, there was Louis Prima. One of America's most hypnotic and original performers, Prima's career spanned several decades and turned out hits like "That Old Black Magic," "Sing, Sing, Sing," "Just a Gigolo," "I Ain't Got Nobody" and "Jump, Jive an' Wail." In Disney's animated classic 'The Jungle Book,' Prima created the "hep" voice of King Louie the orangutan. This film profiles the magnetic Louis Prima in a nostalgic historical journey through the music scenes of a racy New Orleans, the swinging jazz culture of uptown New York and Las Vegas's formative years. The Prima Memorial Series is presented by the Gia Maione Prima Foundation and Tulane University Special Collections, a division of Tulane University Libraries.
