Hmmm. Did the below not print?   Here it is retyped.


This from trombonist Herb Gardner. For those who are not familiar with  
Herb, he is arguably the finest OKOM trombonist alive in the world  
today. See: <http://www.herb-gardner.com/bio.html>

Who is Stan Rubin?In the 1950s/60s he led one of the most popular  
Dixieland Bands on the East Coast of the USA. Played some high society  
Dixieland too. Like Grace Kelly's wedding in Monaco and that of Henry  
Ford's Daughter etc.

Don't be put off by Herb's term "mainstream". In NYC that means OKOM.  
What do I opine about NYC Dixieland? It is among the finest in the  
world and has been for about 80 years.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
