[Dixielandjazz] Randy Reinhart

[Harry Callaghan]

Steve:

What's a "spopt"?  Sounds like something that would require me to pre-spray
a garment before launderiing.it.

Just kidding with you, of course as I suspect it was just a typographical
error which even I am also prone to all too often (with a silent "t").

As to Randy, just after I posted Herb's Groundhog gig, Bob Ringwald e-mailed
me off-list telling me about his associaton with Jim Cullum

I guess that since Bob never had the good fortune to have played with him as
you did, he chose not to post it on the list..

If I were in the audience when you were playing "Tin Roof Blues" I probably
would have started me singing "Make Love to Me" because of the strong
similarity.between the two.

While I don't have Jo Stafford's version of it, I did consult a 45 I have by
the Dorsey Brothers and the composition credits do not match that of "Tin
Roof Blues".  Is it possible that we might possibly have another "Jimmy
Forrest situation" here?
