Fans of Nick may see early footage by going to YouTube: 'The Ray Anthony show', notably "Harlem Nocturne" and some good close shots of Nick in "That Old Black Magic" (featuring Vikki Carr on vocals)...you may not recognize him - he doesn't have a mustache. Also footage from 1975 (I think) of Nick with Dudley Moore on 'Gershwin Tribute' or 'Gershwin Medley' (just type in Nick Ceroli & it will come up) Enjoy! R.I.P. Nick. Brad Norman, Flint, MI
