[Dixielandjazz] JAZZ RHYTHM online archives

[Dave Radlauer]

 Greetings --

I've been converting my JAZZ RHYTHM website into an online jazz archive, offering streaming and downloadable audio: mostly unissued or newly recovered from one-of-a-kind audiotape performances.  These are very rare materials from the San Francisco jazz revival recorded between c. 1940-75.

In addition, I'm offering interpretive interactive articles and web pages that place the performances in context, such as this article 

 exploring a unique Bay Area jazz cornet player and personality
The Odd Brilliance of PT Stanton:

This article contains more than 50 audio links (2/3 previously unissued), 6 or 7 previously unpublished photos, and links to pages further investigating Stanton, his music and times:

You are invited to several other newly posted award-winning JAZZ RHYTHM content:

Thanks to Darylene Oxtot, rare photos, music and clippings from Dick's personal archives offer fresh views of his life in jazz.

Joplin was taped in 1963 & 1965 with Dick Oxtot jazz bands in the San Francisco area.
