You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Carmen Lombardo''' (July 16, 1903 – April 17, 1971) was lead saxophonist and featured vocalist for his brother [[Guy Lombardo]]'s orchestra. He was also a successful composer. In 1927, Carmen Lombardo was the vocalist of the hit record [[Charmaine (song)|Charmaine]], performed by Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians.

==Early years==
Lombardo was born in [[London, Ontario]], Canada. As a child, he took [[flute]] lessons, and later learned to play [[saxophone]]. 

He had three brothers who also became musicians: [[Guy Lombardo|Guy]], [[Lebert Lombardo|Lebert]], and [[Victor Lombardo|Victor]].<ref>((Cite news |date=1934-04-17 |title=Clipped From The Amarillo Globe-Times |pages=7 |work=The Amarillo Globe-Times |url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/4283532/the-amarillo-globe-times/ |access-date=2022-10-11))</ref>

==Career==
As a young man played in the Lombardo Brothers Concert Company with Guy on violin and another brother, Lebert, on trumpet or piano.<ref name="Keillor2008">((cite book|author=Elaine Keillor|title=Music in Canada: Capturing Landscape and Diversity|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=P4rf9W02vv0C&pg=PT207|date=18 March 2008|publisher=McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP|isbn=978-0-7735-3391-2|page=207))</ref> As the band grew, Guy became conductor, and the band developed into [[The Royal Canadians]] in 1923, in which Carmen both sang and wrote music.<ref name=canada>((cite encyclopedia|url=https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/carmen-lombardo-emc|title=Carmen Lombardo |encyclopedia=[[Encyclopedia of Music in Canada]]|accessdate=August 22, 2019))</ref> 

He frequently collaborated with American composers and his music was recorded by [[Louis Armstrong]], [[Bing Crosby]], and others. Many of his compositions have also been used in [[Woody Allen]] films. When singing songs like "Alone at a Table for Two" he would allow his voice to tremble, and seem nearly to break into tears- he was caricatured in Warner Brothers cartoons as "Cryman" Lombardo.

In the late 1960s, actor-[[raconteur]] [[Tony Randall]] made several TV appearances on ''[[The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson]]'' in which he sang songs written by Carmen Lombardo in a voice imitating (and somewhat exaggerating) Lombardo's style. On one appearance, Lombardo and Randall performed a duet of Lombardo's "Boo Hoo (You've Got Me Crying for You)", which was one of the songs that Randall typically included in his Lombardo routine.

==Death==
Lombardo died of [[cancer]] in [[Miami]] in 1971, aged 67.<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/1971/04/18/archives/carmen-lombardo-dead-at67-helped-lead-royal-canadiam-composedseems.html "Carmen Lombardo Dead at 67; Helped Lead Royal Canadians"].
