[Dixielandjazz] Re: Condon tune

Ernie, Bill, and All.....
The Jam Session Coast-to-Coast, with the Condon all-stars on one side and the Rampart Street Paraders on the other, is probably my all-time favorite record.  Lou McGarity on Ole Miss is as good as it gets, IMHO.
Thanks for reminding me of it.  I'm going to play it right now.
