[Dixielandjazz] Jitterbugging

[EDWIN COLTRIN]

Thanks for the article,Steve.
   
  I didn't know all that had preceded me in 1943. I was attending CCNY in the Army in 1944. On two occassions I walked from CCNY to the city through Harlem, down Lenox Ave. On my way to Eddie Condons Town Hall  Concerts.
   
  Didn't realize that a dumb west-coaster was walkng through a very troubled area. More interested in the early musicl history than any thought of racial problems. There hadn't been any problems in the S.F. Bay area that I knew of. Possibly because I was searching out musicians, White or Black. This took me into some different locations.
