[Dixielandjazz] Don Goldie

[Steve Voce]

I agree that Don was a masterful and delightful cornetist. A few weeks ago I got a Teagarden CD that luxuriously partners Don with Bobby Hackett.
Don was also unusual in that, when he died, he left behind a list of people he did not want to attend his funeral.

Some people are exceptionally sensitive to that. The first thing the late Stanley Dance mentioned in his obituary to Hugues Panassie was the Panassie ear.  Perhaps people can now start talking about Mezz Mezzrow?).
