Dear Mouldie Fygge Bill:

Be sure to check out that other website (in Germany) about Milt Barnhart.
You'll love the Goodman story, or the vignette about Teagarden and Louis.
And, some other great stories about jazz music as well as some other
Barnhart records with Nelson Riddle.

Here it is again.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone. 

PS: Who BTW, has a lucky gig belt, in needlepoint by wife Martha, with
"Mouldie Figge" centered, as well as clarinet and notes etc. All designed by
her. Wear it to all gigs, and even had it refurbished a year ago as the
leather end split. That too might be a  surprise.
