Shorty Long was there, I spoke with him, I hadn't seen him in 50 years. He played a mean rendition of Orange Blossom Special on the fiddle. He had to sit down, he's not doing well. Is this the Shorty Long you are looking for. The one from the Reading Pennsylvania area? By the way, what was the name of his Band? I didn't ask him, but it was Shorty Long and the Santa Fe Boys, or Shorty Long and the Santa Fe Rangers, as I remember.
