[Dixielandjazz] Chuck Reiley

[Dan Augustine]

     This sad news just arrived: Chuck Reiley passed away this morning.
     Chuck Reiley was the leader of the Alamo City Jazz Band in San 
Antonio, Texas.  He was 82 years old and together with Jim Cullum Sr. 
helped get traditional jazz off the ground in central Texas in the 
early 1960s.  There was a good writeup on him and his career in the 
November 2004 issue of _The Mississippi Rag_.  More details as they 
become available.
