[Dixielandjazz] Mr. T's 100th birthday anniversary Revisited Again

[Robert Newman]

Don, Joe's biopic movie covering Teagarden's life "It's Time For 'T'" is 
wonderful and truly a labor of love.   He also made a video showing his 
incredibly huge collection of Teagarden memorabilia, in which he walks you 
through the whole monstrous collection.   Mind boggling.
