[Dixielandjazz] Fw: N.O. jazz, Chicago jazz, New York jazz

[Ulf Jagfors]

 Hmmm
 Very strange post indeed
 Do you really mean that the black N.O musicians had no influence on the
 Chicago style. Sounds like me to be the same idea that the white invented
 the banjo, or have I completly misunderstood something here?
