Musician Buddy DeFranco

Name:Buddy DeFranco
Born:Saturday, February 17, 1923
Died:Wednesday, December 24, 2014
Remarks:Buddy DeFranco is one of the great clarinetists of all time and, until the rise of Eddie Daniels, he was indisputably the top clarinetist to emerge since 1940. It was DeFranco's misfortune to be the best on an instrument that after the swing era dropped drastically in popularity and, unlike Benny Goodman and Artie Shaw, he has never been a household name for the general public.
