[Dixielandjazz] Trumpet/Cornet player

[Brian Towers]

Larry,
I have heard Charlie Fardella many times in New Orleans - he used to play
with Banu Gibson and he is on many of her earlier albums.   A great
favourite of mine and fun to watch on stage too.  I liked him even better
before he switched from cornet to trumpet..  Good vocalist too - does a nice
job on tunes like  "I would Do Most anything for You" etc.

I will be in LOLA in April for the FQFEST and will see what he is doing
these days.

Cheers,
Brian Towers
Toronto
