After Dark
Inka, Not Inca, Trio From Peru
Takes Over at the Blue Room
Night club patrons bored with the
usual routine of dancers, singers and
comedians making with the enter
tainment at most After Dark spots,
are promised something different
this week by the Shoreham’s Blue
Room. Appearing with Gomez and
Beatrice (dancers), are the Inka
Takl Trio. They are natives of
Peru, and feature songs of that re
gion as well as South American folk
ballads and the more widely-known
rumbas.
The group made a recent appear
ance here at a concert at the Pan
American Union. Max Lowe, the
Shoreham's entertainment overseer,
heard about them and dashed ffff
waving a contract.
Featured is Senorita Imma Su
mack. According to her teacher.
Morises Bivanco, also a member of
the trio, she can sing in three reg
isters and compete with Lily Pons
right down to the wire when it
comes to hitting the high notes.
The three accompany themselves
on Inka <we protested it was spelled
Inca, but Senor Bivanco protested
right back) instruments.
In this country since 1946, they
have played hotel and concert dates
throughout the land. Several ap
pearances at New York's Carnegie
Hall are booked for the Peruvians.

One of the bigger laughs boom
ing around the Capitol Theater this
week comes when Xavier Cugat
mentions Petrillo—and he and most
of the band slide to their knees and
salaam. Although the undisputed
czar of music has declared an ab
solute ban on recording—and it
seem he can do that sort of thing—
he did relax his hold long enough to
permit some records to be made here.
With what the publicity releases
on the subject said was the great
man's blessing, the Beach Johnson
Trio cut many sides. But they are
traffic safety jingles, part of the
Commissioners’ Traffic Advisory
Board’s safety campaign. Johnson,
now appearing with his group at the
Crescent Cafe, has set the jingles to
music from popular songs.
