"Willie and the Hand Jive" was one of my favs as a teenager (yes, I know I'm admitting to my age). He made it to 90, quite a feat. I was surprised to see he wasn't black. The song was certainly that style. He was from Greek-American parents. Had plenty of other music successes and was a touring musician into his 70s.

RIP Johnny and thanks for the music,
