Not OKOM BUT, interesting reprise of 47 year old performance. Who says  
you can't go home again? Maybe we should be playing with the same fire  
as those Dixieland bands of the 50s and 60s? to generate similar  
audience response?
In 1957, The Diamonds had a hit with "Little Darlin".  47 years later  
i n 2004 they were requested to perform it in Atlantic City ..  This  
link shows both performances.
If you were alive in 1957, and old enough to listen to Rock and Roll,  
you will probably remember the group, "The Diamonds" who had just  
launched their super hit "Little Darlin'".

Watch them separately or at the same time. Then if you are old enough  
to have been enjoying Dixieland in 1957, are the bands playing it now,  
playing it the same way the bands did back then?
