[Dixielandjazz] Re: female tuba eupher

[Dan Augustine]

Steve and others on TubaEuph and DJML--
     It was Dave Richoux who asked about her on May 4, 2005:

"I am passing a question from the Dixieland Jazz list:

>In this name dropping game about tuba players, I do not see the name

>Louis played solid tuba. Have not heard much of her in late years, so
>if anyone knows any update on her please send it along.

I did a quick web search and only found a few other references to her
recorded work. (there is another Louise Anderson who writes books -
this is not her.)   Anybody in the mid-west know Louise?"

     Bill Haesler wrote back:

"I have their Stomp Off LP (SOS 1026). Recorded in Sept 1982.
A great little group with listmate Butch Thompson, cl, p; as a guest on
several tracks."

This recording was apparently never released on CD, but here are the 
particulars about it:

Name of band: Chicago Rhythm
Title of recording: Chicago Rhythm
Label: Stomp Off 1026
Songs: Oh Sister Ain't That Hot, Liza, Southbound, 
Shim-Me-Sha-Wabble, Laughing at You, I Lost My Gal From Memphis, King 
Joe, Out of Town Gal, Hummin' to Myself, He's the Last Word,
Chicago Rhythm personnel:
Frank Powers - clarinet, tenor sax
John Otto - clarinet, alto sax
Ted Des Plantes - piano
Jack Meilahn - banjo
Louise Anderson - tuba
Hal Smith - drums

     I didn't see her listed on Terry Waldo's website.
