\"Marcel<\/p>\n

I just learned that Marcel J Chouinard<\/strong> has passed away on Monday, October 12th.<\/p>\n

In 1964, Marcel performed LOUIE LOUIE with The Nocturnals <\/strong>on a Canadian TV show known as “Let’s Go.” This was a television show that aired 5 days a week at 5:30 pm on the CBC network. <\/p>\n

Unlike the Kingsmen<\/strong> or Paul Revere & the Raiders<\/strong>, Marcel’s 1964 television performance of LOUIE LOUIE was a live performance with no lip-synching.<\/p>\n

I’m very fortunate that I was able to meet Marcel in 2007, and conduct an interview with him, which I wrote about in a previous blog posting<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I wish Marcel could have lived to have seen this documentary completed, but there are still some things I’m still trying to resolve right now. I knew Marcel had health issues, but I was really hoping he would live to see this thing finished.<\/p>\n

Rest in peace, Marcel. You will not be forgotten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
