[Dixielandjazz] Stirring the pot

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

For me it's the kind of country music I could dance to in north central  
Missouri in the late '50's - early '60's with a live band which is why I'm  
posting.  Last week I was back there for a funeral.  Was visiting with  a 
beautiful 81 year old lady who had worked for my father in her youth.   She was 
telling me about the death of her husband and how she was lonesome,  
especially because she loved to go dancing and still did so.  I asked if  she was 
dancing to live music.  She said, "Yes, but it's getting really  hard to 
find."

Here's Jimmie Rodgers, doing "Any  Old Time" in  1929.

It  starts with the typical guitar that we 
associate with JR and  then...

Holy Smoke!!   Here's a ?Dixieland Band??    I 
think It's dixie!

One of my favorites.   I had an  arrangement of 
"Waiting for a Train" for the Colorado Nighthawks, 
but  we never did it.
