Hi Kent,
Thought this might be of interest to your subscribers on Forgotten Hits. The picture is of my brother Joe and myself in a 1959 issue of Photoplay magazine. I remember we grabbed something to eat after a rehersal at the Convention Center in Miami, FL. You can see we were in good company, along with Dick Clark back in those days. Continued sucess with Forgotten Hits.
Sincerely,
Frank Jordan
"The Jordan Brothers"
