[Dixielandjazz] Rhineheart

[ROBERT R. CALDER]

It's only elementary singing lesson material, like anybody should have if they want to tangle musically with the English language.  I did go into some detail as to why Jimmy Rushing sounded as if he was singing "Rinehar' " not "I'm her"  just to make clear that there's nothing wrong with the hearing of anybody who hears the former -- because the sounds are there. 
My purpose was information not correction. Hence my spelling everything out. The more advanced work was in the listening which picked out the sounds Jimmy Rushing was actually producing,
all the very best, 
Robert

 Dear Robert,

I fear your article is wasted on this mailing list. It warrants submission to the nearest university as a doctoral thesis. The only question would be to which faculty would you submit it: English or music. Such a valiant effort deserves academic recognition.
