[Dixielandjazz] Dr. Norman Vickers

[BOYER DONALD]

Thanx Leslie for reminding us to read about our own "Jazz Warrior", Dr. Norman Vickers.  Thanx Dr. Vickers for all you have done over the years to keep the OKOM flame burning!  I hope that all our other listers will take a look at the Mississippi Rag each month.  You will learn a lot about our music and as Leslie pointed out it's FREE!!

  Hi, Listmates:

Many of you know Dr. Norman Vickers, who is a wonderful jazz advocate but 
modest about his efforts. I thought you might like to know that the July 
Mississippi Rag acknowledges him as a "Jazz Warrior" (part of our series which 
salutes people who fight the good fight to establish festivals and who work hard 
to keep jazz clubs going). If you'd like to read the story, just go to 
_www.mississippirag.com_ (http://www.mississippirag.com) and click on the 
appropriate line to go to the free web-based issue. (You may or may not know that the 
RAG has been free online since last January.) Also, I'm sure Norman would 
love to hear from you. He's a real boon to the jazz community and deserves kudos 
for his consistent support of jazz.
