[Dixielandjazz] Zimmertime

[ROBERT R. CALDER]

as regards a parody of one of my party pieces 


when the summer of life is long past the item on which the less able lean in order to perform ambulatory movements, as Marty Grosz would say, is in Britain referred to as a Zimmer frame --

Zimmertime, when to move isn't easy.... 


funnily enough I can't really be inspired about that particular parody

as I recall, when Willie the Lion Smith was not in his youthful prime he delivered an astonishing Summertime on a recording session in Paris, with an amazing inspired succession of modulations. 

Young and Healthy!
