[Dixielandjazz] Roy Eldridge followed Louis Armstrong?

[Charles Suhor]

Marek, I came by my fandom honestly. Born and raised in New Orleans; before my teens, enchanted (still am) by Bunk, Louis, Bechet, and others. Moved along, without burning the bridges of my love for early jazz, to enjoying and playing drums in many styles. Gigged with big band and modern jazz groups on some weekends, on others with Armand Hug, Chink Martin, Paul Crawford, etc. But from inside your bubble, I’m not a jazz fan. You’re entitled to your opinion, man, but that’s an insult.

Charlie
