"I'm one of the few bandleaders who's still alive and still playing," Corry says. "I more or less kind of stayed with it." [again, from 1984... can find no obit for Corry but considering this last quote of his, he thought of himself as old 33 years ago, and if he was 20 in the 1930's, as the quote at the top indicates, he'd have to be nearly 100 today. Likely no one is jitterbugging to his live music now. Too bad.]
