[Dixielandjazz] DeParis with "Wendell Lowe"

[Gluetje1 at aol.com]

I apologize for not being clear when I used the word puzzling.  I was  
puzzled by his playing on the off-beat since to me it was jarring  and ruined 
the solidity of the performance to such an extent I would have  sent him 
hiking on the spot.  Maybe that band liked it that way.

Hi Ginny -
 
The puzzling beat by the banjo player is accomplished by his playing on  
the off beat of each 4/4 measure. Think of playing on the back beat (chick) in 
 2/4 music (with a boom / chick drum sound - here he's playing on the chic 
4  times for each measure instead of twice) !
 
Don't be shy - ask ! It's nice to hear from someone who is  interested.
