[Dixielandjazz] Jazz from Australia

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Richard's departure note reminds me of a very old joke about the fellow (of  
course, not a lady :>)) who told the preacher he didn't want to join the  
church "because it was full of hypocrites".  Preacher responded, "Oh,  that's OK.  
One more won't hurt us."  Music content:  the great  jazz tunes that emerged 
from churches.

Hi  All,
Sadly the jazz bigots finally got in the way of a good list. In a  separate
email I have unsubscribed. Self opinion, arrogance and ignorance  is no place
for me and I suspect many others to will "hang out" no longer.  Maybe that's
why the art form has been so badly beaten up in the USA......  

Hooroo. 

PS if any of you ever get to Australia look us up,  I'll buy you a beer, give
you a gig and show you a young and vibrant art  form.


regards,
Richard  Stevens
