[Dixielandjazz] Sweet Georgia Brown

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

Actually I agree with those who have posted about enjoying the violin and  
the guitar, losing patience with the rest.  And I'm one who rarely  
appreciates jazz violin.
 
Andy, I have a vinyl record of Frank Vignola soloing on banjo when he was  
about 13 - 14. :?) .  I have seen reference to him still occasionally  
enjoying banjo recreationally.
But a few years ago he told me he was making a very nice living with his  
guitar -- and that is certainly a deserved outcome.  Great guy and  musician.

To some  extent I'd agree. Mark O'Connor and Frank Vignola certainly
start it off  swinging. I think the rhythm section pick up on this
and keep it going, but  Marsalis particularly plays some unusual
rhythms on top of this.

I  like the overall effect, but it wont appeal to all on the list.

After  all there's not Tuba and Banjo :^)
