Danny Winkle, Big Howdy BMI
Big B 557
Bogalusa, La.
1960
Danny (Winkle) was perhaps from Biloxi, MS where he played The Copa Lounge on Pat Harrison Avenue around 1959. Danny had at least another release on Village Records in 1962 : "Don't Fall In Love" b/w "The Girl At Johnny's " produced by Pee Wee Maddux and Kennedy.
This Big B label (not to be confused by the Big B label from Avon-by-the-Sea, New Jersey) was owned by Hastel Joseph "Hack" Kennedy (1915-1994) whose main label was Big Howdy. Village Records was also perhaps his own.
Danny is my father. He’s still alive at the age of 88 and living in Florida. Check out the Danny Winkle fan club page on Facebook.
