Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with HUEY "PIANO" SMITH & THE CLOWNS!

The legendary Mr. Smith passed away earlier this week at 89. Did you know then, Huey wrote the summer classic, 'Sea Cruise' but the vocals were given to Frankie Ford who had a mega-hit with it. Smith's piano however remained on the track. If you'd like to hear Huey's version of 'Sea Cruise' just follow this handy link.
