[Dixielandjazz] Steve Barbone and Fairness

[Harold Smith]

Steve:
Re your remarks about Candye Kane and the rest of the events in San
Diego, I have come to the conclusion that you are much too fair and
open-minded, and always willing to look at the other points of view.

Gads, man! What must I endure in order to peacefully wallow in my
hide-bound prejudices?  I don't want to hear fairness, open-mindedness,
and tolerance.  Damn the infidels!  I love Jazz, and other decent and
creative forms of music.  The music world today is Darwinism in reverse.
lInstead of evolving on an upward plane, we are watching retrgression in
a non-diminishing race to oblivion.

I know we'll hardly return to the glorious music of the past, but
dammit, I'm sure gonna try.  

Curmudginly yours,  Harold Smith
