[Dixielandjazz] Jonathan Russell

[Jerry Gordon]

We saw him at several sets in Clearwater, and I agree with Steve's and
John's raves (as I said after the CT festival last Aug). Also had a brief
chat with him; didn't want him to forget who taught him how to remove his
finger. ;) 

If anyone wants to see a picture of him, let me know off list.
