[Dixielandjazz] tuba??

[Dan Augustine]

     I second the motion.  He's right up there with Eli Newberger, 
Dave Gannett, Westy Westenhofer, and a couple of others.  Pity he 
doesn't play any more, and that the Professor Plum CDs are so hard to 
get.  If you've never heard him play, or never heard the Professor 
Plum band, you've missed one of the best dixieland-experiences ever.
