Although Snooky played lead w Basie & Thad & Mel's band-90% of the time it was Johnny Audino who played lead w the Tonight Show-like here in this video-Snooky would play lead on certain charts though.
@@mikeprevost8650 After Johnny passed, he was really lost for a lead player that could play with all the style Audino had…Doc used Frank Szabo, Rick Baptist and Findley at different times
My good friend and teacher,Ed was a great drummer and instructor..
Wow! Snooky, love his Lead playing

@@chasefreak I think they added Chuck Findley after John Audino died suddenly.
Sounded like Snooky had a little glitch there around 1:40.
