[Dixielandjazz] Riverside recordings

[ROBERT R. CALDER]

I seem to remember that some Riverside recordings were available as legal 
meaning alas need to be paid for downloads from CONCORD.  A friend of mine in 
USA managed to find me the Elmer Snowden banjo session with Cliff Jackson on 
piano 

There are also some amazing tracks by Snowden on acoustic guitar on a set of 
duets with Lonnie Johnson, Snowden apparently asking Johnson "do you remember 
this one?" and the two of them duetting beautifully -- I think these ones were 
from Prestige but through the remarketing of both labels by Fantasy / Original 
Jazz Classics they came to Concord -- and there was no other sign of the 
Snowden-Jackson CD beyond the site where I found it and from which I got the 
download. 

OI course numbers of these things turn up from odd corners of the Amazon.co.uk 
and amazon.com tributaries variously new or remaindered or or or 

But of course you have to know what names you're looking after, before you can 
google old Riversides.
