[Dixielandjazz] RE: DJML In the beginning

[CreightB at aol.com]

Hi all,

I looked up some copied discussions from July of 95, and so I'm assuming 
shortly before that is when I did sign on the list.  Someone mentioned Bill Dendle 
perhaps being the first to leave, and that rings a bell.  Chris Tyle got 
leaped on, as I recall, for saying something like any tuba player doing 4-beat 
should lose his/her tuba.  Several of the discussions I printed out were by Chris 
Tyle in July '95.  He and Brian Towers seemed to be large contributors on the 
history and such of jazz.  Some names I see from July 95 are:  Dr. Michael 
Rader, Colin J. Bray, Ed Metz Sr., Don Mopsick, Dave Littlefield, E.K. Newman, 
Bill Dendle, Dick Kammeier, Rex Allen, Brian C. White, M. Logsdon, 
"Oliver1923", Karen Quick, Steve Hoog, Floyd Levin, and Chris Tyle.
