[Dixielandjazz] 10 Representative Dixieland Recordings

Are you saying that sound quality is not important? It is hard to appreciate
a hissing sound track of yesteryear.

Dead players vs living bands....

Funny how this false dichotomy keeps coming up.  It's the MUSIC that's
living, my friends.  Whether it's being played by someone long gone or by an
exciting (sic) current-day band, it's the music they're after.  Are you
saying that these younger audiences would enjoy Armstrong less because he's
dead and has to be listened to on a CD?  Ultimately, I think, it's their
desire to dance that makes them flock to Barbone Street rather than to the
CD shop...,
