 On the achievement of ole cat-eye's
 friend eagle-eyed Steve, catching Marek's typo..and even
 more of the verse which amused Harry Callaghan and Phil
 Ladd, NUT (now up there).
 
 ISREAL? (with no apologies to Johnny
 Carisi or Svengali*)
 (*asterisk dedicated to Ken Mathieson)
 
 What a lovely typo, and Steve's
 contentionthat Marek is actually his (Steve's) invention 
 makes me hope that that won't make
 Marek disappear 
 with consequent collapse in the sale of
 good beersuch as he'll often award a good mention.
 I write limericks and other verse, some
 deeper,but alas I'm semi-immobilised and a sleeper 
 as a victim of damnable Chronic Fatigue
 Syndromewhich keeps me and my trouble too much at home 
 though the ivy around the house is the
 only creeper --
 I play blues piano and also sing bass 
 (I'm trained in the latter, not a
 disgrace!) 
 like the birds on Bessie Smith's Black
 Mountain 
 and am about two metres tall and can't
 refrain 
 from saying that like the Eiger I've a
 north face 
 
 but a fondness also for listening Deep
 South,where the garrulous are like'to hear "Shut yo'
 mouth!"and my age is I'll admit three score and a bit, 
 started in Scotland, back here,
 appreciative of wit 
 and a due delectation of what eases
 Marek's drouth; 
 
 and I learned about jazz from Lord Voce
 and suchlike ears,
 not to mention Eddie Lambert, the
 criticism which cheers,Albert McCarthy, and the extended
 Ellington romance 
 associated by many with the "we" of
 Stanley Dance 
 and other now drinkers of Ambrosia --
 and more beers. 
 
 Among other things I've done before 
 I've been a reference book author and
 an editor 
 of literary magazines and more 
 and you can even pay to hear me on CD 
 but as a reader of Scots Language
 poetry
 
 I can't recall when I joined but thank
 you all 
 without whom life could be less of a
 ball!

 Who Are You?
 Rocky Ball
 
 Where Are You?
 Atlanta, Georgia
 
 Musician?
 Professional - Plectrum banjo. Started
 organizing trad bands in college. Joined the Ruby Reds Band
 in Atlanta about 1974. Played with Ernie Carson, Sammy
 Duncan, Stew Magee, Herman Foretich, Hal "Shorty" Johnson,
 Big Dave Hanson, Milton Dargan "Peanuts" Fitch and many
 others. Sat side banjo and apprenticed with Bill Rutan, Ron
 Beisel, Ed Cuneo, Ben Johnson III and (for a very short
 time) Perry Bechtel.
 
 Took my own band (Raz'Mataz Jazz Band)
 to Pittsburgh (Kennywood Park) where I became the Director
 of Live Entertainment for 14 years (1978-1991). Also
 designed and produced live shows (including trad jazz bands)
 for Elitch Gardens in Denver; Dorney Park in Allentown,
 Stone Mountain Park and Six Flags Over Georgia in Atlanta.
 
 Currently (with 2 partners) OWN the
 Ruby Reds Band and play LOTS! http://www.RubyRedsBand.com
 
 Also play piano, banjoline (4 string
 electric plectrum guitar), create music (of all kinds) with
 modern digital recording equipment in a home studio, as
 well.
 
 ...also work as a professional
 illustrator and graphic designer. http://www.RockyBall.com
 
 When...?
 Can't remember exactly but I've been
 here a LONG time... at least 15 years, maybe 20. Lurking of
 late. Had a bad stroke in 2002 but have completely
 recovered.

 Hello, Bert? Glad you dug the CDs. Yes,
 Don played all styles of jazz but the most calls were
 understandably for Dixieland gigs on clarinet. Trumpeter
 Wendell Brunious wrote to me, "I admired the way he could go
 from style to style seamlessly and flawlessly." On Wendell's
 "Dippermouth Blues" track Don plays the traditional Dodds
 solo then moves with ease into his "dixiebop" synthesis.
 Even on alto sax he often blended styles. The Don Vappie
 quartet has a multi-style ball on "South Rampart Street
 Parade" because all the guys have bebop skills and deep
 roots in New Orleans music and they knew how to have fun by
 crossing the lines.

 took the same (shorter) form on Petite Fleur like Monty
 Sunshine had introduced, instead of the extra long notes
 Bechet always used on his own composition. It all really
 gives the impression one could call Don for any given Jazz
 style in New Orleans at the time, whether traditional New
 Orleans, straight Dixie, Swing or Bebop. He just seems to
 have known all the different "dialects" or "languages". Very
 impressive.

 Don's Jazzology 2-CD set, "Don Suhor?New Orleans Clarinet
 and Sax Virtuoso," are out. Great comments from Peter Lay in
 London, Geraldine Wycoff in a N.O., and Scott Yanow in
 Syncopated Times. Some snippets...

 Lay, Just Jazz magazine (July 2018)

 > ?Don Suhor thoroughly embraced
 both traditional and modern jazz and often would infiltrate
 one of these kissin? cousins within the other. He also
 brought an equal amount of fervor to the clarinet, his first
 instrument, and the saxophone. Don Suhor continually
 demonstrates his love of all jazz and the wholeness that
 remains the music?s, as well as his, essence.?--Geraldine
 Wycoff, New Orleans OffBeat weekly (July 31, 2018)
 > 
 > ?On both of his instruments, Suhor
 had a wide range and was able to high very high notes with
 ease, making the occasional leaps into the stratosphere a
 logical part of his open-mined style....Despite his lack of
 interest in being documented, the release of this twofer
 lets one enjoy the musical legacy of Don Suhor, a talent who
 deserves to be remembered.?--Scott Yanow,  Syncopated
