[Dixielandjazz] Jazz Definitions/categories; Infidels

[tcashwigg at aol.com]

Holy Mallowly Bat Man:

we are one :))

GUESS THAT would include a lot of Jazzers both players and listeners 
Heh DAN?

LIKE REV. TOM -BOB   AND Deacon- Bob Romans, and of course would 
include SHEIK Littlefield, and FR. Mike, for sure.  As all beer 
swillin' Tuba players .

How about Chick Singers ?? are they included or do they have a category 
for them all by itself ?  :))

Cheers,

Rev. Tom Bob

Musical content: just to make it legal:   "I Believe"

   (Considerably Off-Topic:)
 From _The Devil's Dictionary_ by Ambrose Bierce:

"INFIDEL, n.  In New York, one who does not believe in the Christian
religion; in Constantinople, one who does.  (See GIAOUR.)  A kind of
scoundrel imperfectly reverent of, and niggardly contributory to,
divines, ecclesiastics, popes, parsons, canons, monks, mollahs,
voodoos, presbyters, hierophants, prelates, obeah-men, abbes, nuns,
missionaries, exhorters, deacons, friars, hadjis, high-priests,
muezzins, brahmins, medicine-men, confessors, eminences, elders,
primates, prebendaries, pilgrims, prophets, imaums, beneficiaries,
clerks, vicars-choral, archbishops, bishops, abbots, priors,
preachers, padres, abbotesses, caloyers, palmers, curates, patriarchs,
bonezs, santons, beadsmen, canonesses, residentiaries, diocesans,
deans, subdeans, rural deans, abdals, charm-sellers, archdeacons,
hierarchs, class-leaders, incumbents, capitulars, sheiks, talapoins,
postulants, scribes, gooroos, precentors, beadles, fakeers, sextons,
