Growing up in Brooklyn, NY, in the mid 40s, I was fortunate to have heard many of Nicola Paone songs. My father brought home a new record each Friday (Crosby, Paone, etc.) and we’d play it on our vicrola.

Years later in the 80s I met Nicola at his restaurant and we remained friends until he passed away. When my father died in 1987, he wrote me a condolence letter I hold dearly. Paone was a prince of a man and a great talent. I can still hear him singing, “Mr. Police-a man, that isa my gell, you cannota put me in jail!”
