Just  a few examples of what can be done if we have the will to do  it.

Cheers,

If "Jazz at the Bistro", now Jazz St. Louis ever hosted a traditional  or 
Dixieland group, or even considered such as "jazz", I am not aware of  it.  
Sunday, Sept. 23 went to The Sheldon, our best acoustic venue to hear  Jean 
Kittrell and The Riverman.  Listening to Noel Kaletsky, Red Lehr,  Steve Lilley, Jim 
Maihack, Bobby Grimm play extended imaginative lines and  thinking, "If more 
early-style jazzers had been this inventive and imaginative,  we would maybe 
not have to put up with so much boring, unmemorable  bop.  I truly think its got 
to be easier to play bad bop than bad  trad.
