[Dixielandjazz] Ev Farey, R.I.P.

[Bruce Stangeland]

Bert,

I'morry to hear about Ev's passing. I enjoyed playing with him years ago 
when he subbed with the Jubilee Jazz Band. More recently I got to jam 
with him during New Years Day parties in El Cerrito, CA.

He reminded me a few months ago at Earl Scheelar's music celebration 
that he had offered to let me look through his extensive sheet music 
collection. I never got around to it. Too bad.

Trumpet player Ev Farey passed away last evening, Apr. 4.  He was best known, perhaps, as the co-leader of the fine Bay City Jazz Band of the 1950s in the San Francisco area, but he also led the Golden State Jazz Band and played with the Port City Jazz Band and the Gold Coast Jazz Band among many others.
