[Dixielandjazz] Woody Allen's playing.

[glen page]

To all who expressed interest in the above topic.

I concur with the comments re. "Wild Man Blues". I was very disappointed in
the movie.

For those who wish to hear some great N.O. style jazz with Woody up front
try to get hold of"The Bunk Project" cd issued on the Music Masters Jazz
label. I think the # is 65098-2.

There is some very good music, IMHO, on that recording. The six variant
groups all have a nucleus of Woody's band but with some additional people
who will be well known to many of our readers.Amongst them are Danny
Barrett, Peter Ecklund, John Gill,etc etc.

Strongly recommended.

Cheers, Glen

If you want to hear how he plays, check out "Wild Man Blues," the video
documentary of his trip to Paris some years ago.  I think he's truly
horrible.  Absolutely awful.

I enjoy his movies very much, in general, but I lost a lot of respect for
him after watching this film, and after hearing how he treated the musicians
on the tour.
