  • Modest, Gentlemanly, Guy Lombardo, the favorite band of Louis Armstrong. He cherished that idea. Guy believed for his audiences every night should be like New Year’s Eve. As Papa Lombardo had told him, “give the people more than they pay for and they will always invite you back.” For 49 straight years North America has invited Mr. New Year’s Eve, Guy Lombardo, back into their living room. This New Year’s Eve Guy is making the sweetest music both sides of heaven.
