[Dixielandjazz] Jazz Fiddlers

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Thanks, Jack.  I have listened to every jazz violinist named on this  list, 
and others over the years and have never found one who "got through"  my 
think skull or whatever is the problem, even though I enjoy both  classical 
music and string bands.  But Nigel Kennedy, yes.  Been  checking him out this 
morning on everything from bop, to The Who, to Bach,  etc.  Anything he 
plays is working for me.

I would  like to add another name  to the list of present day jazz 
violinists  - Nigel Kennedy. Actually he is a leading classical violinist 
who  
originally became famous by speaking with a rough Cockney accent and  
wearing 
safety pins in his nose and  lips.
