[Dixielandjazz] Re: The Eminem Rag - An article of great substance.

Steve, I must disagree on your 3rd point - the remix or "mash-up" that 
was done here was quite specific to that version of the rag song and 
that rap recording.  A totally different OKOM song could be used but 
the end result would be very different.

  We get a LOT of unusual music  at KFJC every day and I have seen a lot 
of in-studio performances by some very clever folks - what they do is 
not easy, especially the turn-table mixmasters. True, it is not OKOM 
but I do respect their individual talents.

BTW, I played a track your new CD on my show today - also a cut from 
Tom Wiggins' group - both very fine!
