Gene Krupa Obituaries

SKF NOTE: Going through some of my music newspaper clippings file folders. Found these two Gene Krupa obituaries from New York newspapers The New York Times and Newsday. I remember this day very well. I was age 22. Sixteen years earlier, age 6, Gene Krupa’s recording of China Boy, set me on my lifelong love of drums and drumming.

New York Times, October 1973
