[Dixielandjazz] Celestially Beautiful

[David Richoux]

The only better version of that tune I have heard is done as a vocal  
with self-accompanied solo by the bass drummer of the Los Trancos  
Woods Community Marching Band, Smiley Nelson.

(Smily has also been a part of the Washboard-o-Rama at Sacto for many  
years.)

BTW, we are trying to get portions of the California Repercussions  
performance at Turntable on to YouTube - that was one of the great  
events as well!
