[Dixielandjazz] Lydia

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

I'll toot Scott's horn loudly.  I love that CD including Scott's  rendition 
of "Lydia" plus a bunch of other tunes on it!  I was waiting to  see if Scott 
would tell you he had recorded it, cause if he didn't I was going  to.

Jim  Rothermel on reeds, Bill Carroll on tuba, and I recorded it back in  1997
and it's on our "Wise Guys Down In Dixieland" CD. It's kind of a cool  tune,
and it changes to an unexpected key in the middle which, I think,  makes it
rather interesting. It's Bill Carroll's (who was Turks tuba player  for
probably 20 years) very last recording.

I sang it, but the key  was awfully high and it sounds a little rough on the
high notes. It  definitely is a novelty, but brings smiles. My late, then 95
year-old  mother-in-law used to love the "you can learn a lot from  Lydia"
line.

Not to toot our horn too much, but you can get the CD  at
www.santhony.com/ggrm if you  want.
