Carl Lowenthal Talks About Playing At Gus Heintz Club on
1108 Chambers Street, Hamilton
Carl Lowenthal said..........
I studied drums with Tony DeNicola from the age of 13 to
18, and then started playing with Bobby DeNicola at a
club in Trenton called Gus Heintz's. We played there 6
nites a week. Tony was with the Harry James Band at the
time. Bobby and Tony taught me so much about life and
music. I loved both of them dearly for "touching my life"
and for making me a better human being. I used to eat at
Bobby's house many times, and remember Rosalie,his wife
was such a great Italian cook. If his daughter read this,
I would love to hear from them.
I found this just surfing the web and it certainly
applies as Gus club was 1 block from the Burg:)

Bobby's daughter lives in Garden City, SC. I visited Bobby a number of times before his unfortunate passing. He was a wonderful and generous human being always full of good stories!
Thank you for your comment Tom.
I always hope when I post on local folks that their friends see it:)
I am Gus's great nephew, Great Grandson to his brother Jacob.
I'd love to hear more about Gus and his bar. Would also like any info on his family so I can continue on my genealogy. Was he married? Did he have kids? mwallace@nac.net.
Thanks Mark Wallace
