Listed in “Readers recall clubs where they danced to Louisiana Music” from The Daily Advertiser, December 29, 1998: “Readers of The Daily Advertiser were asked to submit names of’ the clubs where they danced to Louisiana music in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, with a brief recollection of what the club was like and who played there.”

West Summers: “This was a big ‘hangout’ for Kaplan and Cow Island teenagers during the 1950s, it was usually a juke box, rarely a live band. I think that it was owned by the Comeauxs.”
