[Dixielandjazz] Jazz Bio Movies

[pat ladd]

It's such a shame that that movie (as virtually all movie jazz bios) had so
little to do with the real Glenn Miller who was not nearly as nice a person
as the one Steve Allen portrayed>>

Hi Richard,

agree totally, but that particular sequence is pretty good and that there 
are not that many film clips of the musicians of the dat floating around. 
Orchestra Wives and Sun Valley Serenade and The Dorsey brothers etc., are as 
close as most people got to the `real` thing. Never mind the plot, listen to 
the band.

Cheers

Pat

PS  Steve Allen?  Is there a version I do not know about? James Stewart 
surely.
