[Dixielandjazz] Jazz Trivia

[Jerry Gordon]

1. We all know that today, Jan. 16, is the 70th anniversary of Benny's
famous Carnegie Hall concert. But what important jazz event happened the
next day, Jan 17, 1938? And for extra credit, who was involved?

2. How old is Marion McPartland, and how long has "Piano Jazz" been on
the air?
