[Dixielandjazz] SPEAKING OF WILD BILL DAVISON

[Harry Callaghan]

Bob:

As they would say in my neck of the woods, Mucho Gracias, Senor:

While I've never heard of "Chippie" before, I am thankful that the mystery
has been solved and I don't have to pull out any more of the little
remaining hair on my head.

I did pull out my Nellie Lutcher 78s this morning for comparison and had
pretty much ruled her out.as being the vocalist.

I have no idea how old you are, but I have to wonder if you get people
asking you sometimes what happened with you and your old sidekick, Howdy
Doody?
