[Dixielandjazz] Turk Murphy band horn-placement

[david richoux]

by the picture on the back of the album Jimmy Stanislaus (the singing 
fireman) would be an African-American. I do not know if he is still 
alive...

When I played in the Monterey Bay Classic Jazz Band we had the rhythm 
section in front (sometimes with 2 banjos) but I did not like having 
the trumpet player in my ear (and sometimes I like to play my tuba 
standing up or use a Sousaphone.)
