I would imagine Lou Singer is the jazzer percussionist/vibist who 
appears on some "cool" lounge sides in the 50s with Esquivel and the 
like as well as some cuts with pianist Errol Garner...Ralph Hansell 
likewise is a jazz vibist/percussionist who played session stuff with 
Mel Torme.....Along these same lines... I just finished a very neat 
interview with the great pianist and influential Latin/Jewish world 
fusion pioneer (Bagels and Bongos, More Bagels and bongos) Irving 
Fields, (that will appear in the Feb AAJ-NY...he will be 89 this year 
and has begun a 3 day a week gig in NYC at the East River Cafe....
