[Dixielandjazz] The Red Sea Jazz Festival-2007

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Hi Bob, 
Are you saying below that there are no CDs being made today by any  groups 
that are representative of the music Tom Wiggins band provided at the Red  Sea 
Jazz Festival?  I'm asking because you said you could only tell them to  search 
for "early, hot, New Orleans Jazz".  I just tried those exact words  in a 
keyword search and indeed the first entry I got was the Red Hot Jazz  Archive.  
No entries in the first few that came up to any current working  groups.  I'm 
stewing over this one as it seems if we want the younger set  to give a listen 
there needs to be something current to suggest they "give a  listen" to.

Hi  Listmates...
My .02 worth, a month after the fact!
The trip to play at  the Red Sea Jazz Festival with Tom Wiggins band was a 
real eye opener! If our  acceptance in Israel is any indication of the rest of 
the countries in that  part of the world, then it's obvious they are hungry for 
a type of music that  is fun, happy, exciting, and danceable, and not just 
cerebral...these kids in  Israel let us know after evey performance that they 
longed for more music like  we gave them...I've never seen such joy in the faces 
of fans, letting us know  they wanted more...all we could do was tell them to 
get on the Internet and  search for early, hot, New Orleans Jazz!  After our 
performances,  sometimes they were 3 or 4 deep wanting to talk to us, shake 
our  hands
