Dear Bill:

Thanks for that post. Hopefully listmates will see the other you tube  
by Ruedebusch. It is at:

As the description says he led the "fastest Dixieland band in the  
world".

He passed away in 1968 and not too many of us remember him. The  
Limehouse Blues clip was recently posted on you tube and it will be  
interesting to see how many hits it gets over the next year.

Bill Sargent  posted on the DJML June 1, 2007 and said in part about  
the Underprivileged Five: "This band played tempos that I don't  
believe I've ever heard another trad band play."

They were the house band at the Tunnel Inn located in Milwaukee as  
Mike Woitowicz and Marty Nichols had posted earlier on June 1, 2007.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
