The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports that Jules Herman, who once played trumpet in Joplin ballrooms during the late 1940s, and who fronted his own orchestra at the Prom Ballroom in St. Paul, Minn., for 35 years died Friday at age 93 of heart failure.
Herman at one time played in Lawrence Welk's band, according to the article, and in fact, married Welk's first Champagne Lady, Lois Best.
