Sidney Bechet - Les Oignons
Sidney Joseph Bechet (May 14, 1897 – May 14, 1959) was an American jazz saxophonist, clarinetist and composer. He was one of the first important soloists in jazz and first recorded several months before trumpeter Louis Armstrong . His erratic temperament hampered his career and not until the late 1940s did he earn wide acclaim. Bechet spent much of his later life in France.
In 1953, he signed a recording contract with Disques Vogue and recorded many hit tunes, including "Les Oignons," "Promenade aux Champs-Élysées," and the international hit " Petite Fleur ." - more at Wikipedia
