[Dixielandjazz] Re: Carl Halen's Gin Bottle 7

[Don]

Father Mike Logsdon and I have acquired two 12"  Riverside LP's of the 
GB7, Gin Bottle Jazz and Whoopie Makers Jazz.  I had earlier gotten a 
casette tape from a friend who dubbed it from a commercial reel to reel 
tape acquired in the late 50's.  We noticed at least one of the tunes 
Four Five times or Angry was different from the one on the LP.  
Apparently the tape was made from one of the afore mentioned 10" LP's.  
BTW, as of at least last fall, Carl Halen and the Little Chicago Jazz 
Society were selling a 2 CD set of live venue performances of the GB7 
in  1957.  The micing was not good for vocals, but otherwise great 
stuff!!  Contact me off list and I'll dig up the address if anyone is 
interested.
