[Dixielandjazz] Sextette from Hunger

[Bill Haesler]

Dear Chris,
Thank you for the long and informative summary of the Sextette From 
Hunger personnel.
Great stuff.
You're talking my language here!
Regarding George Thow and Joe Yukl's tenure with the Dorsey Bros band 
in the mid 1930s.
You've reminded me of a fine small group session they made for Decca in 
1936.
I still have my old Australian Decca 78s.
Ray McKinley's Jazz Band with George Thow (t) Joe Yukl (tb) Skeets 
Herfurt (cl) Joe Sullivan (p) Slim Jim Taft (sb) and Ray McKinley (d). 
Recorded in Los Angeles on 31 March 1936.
"Love in the First Degree/New Orleans Parade/Shack in the Back/Finger 
Wave"
I bet me old mate Don Ingle remembers these rare records, only ever 
reissued on a English Brunswick LP (playing it now) and long overdue 
for reissue on CD. Unless I blinked and missed it.  8>)
Kind regards,
Bill.
