Not really, Tiger. I understand where you're coming from because they were overshadowed by the old Buckaloo Westside crew on 116th. But the Luccheses were VERY strong around 108th Street. And that's where Matty got off.


Didn't the Luccheses originate in the 108th st area? I've read that they were known as the 108th st mob back during the Prohibition era and afterwards. Most of their drug dealers during the Lucchese and Corallo eras came from Harlem.

Were Vincent Pappa and Anthony Loria members of the Purples? How about Bowat?
