>>Dear Malcolm,
>>My friend Jack Vincken from Climax Jazz Band in Toronto emailed me 
>>and suggested I should get my site on your site.
>>As a hobby I have started to do postings on youtube. In the two 
>>months I have been working on this it already has become the 
>>largest collection of jazz video clips in the world in this new 
>>youtube medium.
>>Several jazz festival organizers are really interested because 
>>visitors to jazzfestivals once home and with this source of 
>>information available will stay exposed to good jazz and will come 
>>back to their next festival, etc.
>>I have designed a page, you can print and have on the presentation 
>>tables of your events. Of course you can easily make amendments to 
>>suit your particular event situation.
>>I'll appreciate your comment

>>The Victoria Hot Jazz Jubilee certainly is a  wonderful experience

>>
>>See and hear Louis Armstrong with Jack Teagarden; Sidney Bechet 
>>with Roy Eldridge; Chis Barber; Slam Stewart; Kid Ory with Lil 
>>Hardin; Ruby Braff with Georges Barnes; etc.
>>
>>Yes, yes, yes. I'm in the process of converting the highlights of 
>>my film collection to a new internet medium called Youtube. In the 
>>few months since I started it has already become the largest 
>>internet jazz video clip collection in the world. Close to  400 
>>clips, hundreds of subscribers and more than 160.000 views. Not too 
>>bad for Jazz
