[Dixielandjazz] City of Gabriels

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Some may be interested in the film archives of St. Louis PBS "Living in St.  
Louis".  I'll send the web site.  By scrolling and linking you can  find 
Dennis Owsley talking about the lasting value of simple, good Tin Pan Alley  tunes 
in the St. Louis Banjo Club 8 minute clip, or Owsley's jazz  musician 
photography in a different clip.  See film on musicians  like Henry Townsend, Johnny 
Johnson, Herb Drury, watch a 25 minute film on  history of Gaslight square, etc.

Our son  arrived from St. Louis for a visit and brought me a book "City of  
Gabriels" which discusses the history of jazz in St. Louis, 1895-1973.  
Great read, I was amazed at how many of the people mentioned I knew!   Guess 
I am getting old!
The book is written by Dennis Owsley, who hosts  a weekly show "Jazz 
Unlimited" on KWMU (90.7) every Sunday night from 9 PM  to midnight.
The cover image is Clark Terry's horn.
