[Dixielandjazz] Mixed Race Recording/Jamming

[Randy Fendrick]

Much of the stuff that I have seen on this list, refers to blacks and 
whites playing together at a much later date than the histories that I 
have read concerning the subject.  I think a lot of the folks on this 
list should read a little more about the history of this music of this 
music and they will realize that  blacks and whites have been playing 
together much longer than many think!
