The drummer’s name is Sid Catlett. The character who plays the Frenchman appears at the beginning of the movie without “whiteface”. It was funny when Gene Krupa said he hoped Sid Catlett would return the favor and appear in his next movie.

Who was the black drummer from whom Gene Krupa took the drum sticks….anybody know??
The flat, straight hair-do’s on the actors must have been a laborious, painful, chemical-filled
trail to endure! At first i thought the frenchman character was white, but once i thought about it I realized that there was NO WAY in 1946 america a bi-racial thing was gonna go up on the big screen!! Have naive can I get to have even thought that for a moment! This movie is a treasure. I wonder what became of the performers? What a shame Tim Morre never got more chances like this.

Well over 200 channels on cable TV with millions of dollars worth of entertainment on at any hour, and I sit at my computer watching old movies, serials and shorts from the 30’s, 40’s and 50’s…. and loving every minute of it!
