[Dixielandjazz] Paul Whiteman

[Marek Boym]

And why not, Brian?
Although hardly a giant of jazz. , Whiteman did play some jazz.  And
he was a nimportant figure in its history and development.
Besides, one could ask the same question (well, perhaps without "so
many") with respect to, say, DAve Brubeck.
Cheers
