[Dixielandjazz] More on Lotte, Louis and Mackie

[Anton Crouch]

Hello all

Having finally heard the Lotte Lenya/ Louis Armstrong "session takes" of
Mack the Knife from 28 September 1955, I can add some more comments.

1. I wouldn't call the material "a riot" - it's far more valuable than that
- a glimpse behind the scenes to see how issued material can be made-up
from partial takes.

2. All the previous comments get the detail wrong. The word which causes
Lotte so much trouble with the timing is not "Mack-eee" but "Mack-heath".

Ever the pedant,
Anton
