[Dixielandjazz] Re: Dick Cary, Bobbie Hackett

[Robert S. Ringwald]

I may have told this story before on DJML but, hopefully we have enough new
members who will enjoy it.  It is one of my all-time favorites.

Dick Cary told me about this drummer who subbed one night with Bobbie
Hackett.  The new drummer's idea of Dixieland was cowbells & tone blocks.

Finally, in exasperation, Bobbie turned to the drummer & said, "We'll play
Back home again in Indiana, you play C Jam Blues."
