[Dixielandjazz] Come Back Sweet Papa - Newbie asking for help

[Stefan Schwab]

Hello fellow dixieland enthusiasts,

I was just given the task of coming up with some "funny stuff" to write 
on the CD booklet of our band (a 6-piece band with sousaphone and 
washboard based in Germany).

During the research I've discovered this mailing list. After reading 
through several months worth of mails, I was fascinated by this huge 
amount of jazz-knowledge and decided to join the list.

So, as you can tell, I'm fairly new in here.



Would it upset you, if I ask for your support in the matter mentioned 
above? I hope not...

For our CD we did a recording of Come Back Sweet Papa - leaning heavily 
on the Hot Five Version.
I've been looking all over for some background on this particular tune - 
without much success.

So I would like to ask you, if you know any stories about this piece. 
Either about the original recording or about any other funny stuff that 
happened when somebody worked on that piece. Basically any backgroud 
would be highly appreciated.



I really appreciate what you're doing here - reading through the 
archives of this mailing list makes me feel less alone with my 
enthusiasm about our Music. ; )


So thanks a lot - and I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

Stefan
