[Dixielandjazz] Early Pete Fountain reference

[Audrey Van Dyke]

     Just whiling away another evening reading some old jazz 
publications.  This is from a Playback from 1949.  A short article on 
the doings of the New Orleans Jazz Club, which set forth a list of 
bands who had played in the summer pops concert series at Congo 
Square.  The last band listed is Phil Zito's Dixieland Band.  "The 
latter has a young and upcoming star on clarinet in Peter Fountain."
     Some predictions do come true.
