[Dixielandjazz] Davenport Blues, with Scott Hamilton

[Bert Brandsma]

Hi Dave,
Nothing wrong with giving your honest opinion!
For me it was a nice experience, since I was asked to helpout without prior rehearsal, sightreading the charts and suddenly faced with the fact playing with Hamilton.Besides it was wellpaid, one doesn't have those things in bigbands too often!
Kind regards,
Bert Brandsma
