[Dixielandjazz] The Lazy Man's You Tube of OKOM.

[Stephen G Barbone]

Came across an interesting compilation of OKOM on you tube.

For example, go to:

http://www.youtube.com/artist/johnny_dodds

You see 13 tracks for Johnny Dodds.

Then look on the right side of the screen and see a whole bunch of "related artists".

Click on any one of them and you get a new set of videos for that artist. 

Also note that when you choose a related artist, the list of related artists on his page changes to reflect his style. For example the list of related artists for George Lewis is different from that of Bix Beiderbecke.

I'm not sure just how many OKOM you tubes one can access this way but no doubt one could keep occupied for quite a while.

Probably no earth shattering new discoveries here, but for those who do not have extensive record collections, this is an easy way to access the music.

Cheers,
