[Dixielandjazz] Contact information for The Sheik?

Mon Feb 18 19:55:34 EST 2019

Hello, listmates,

I have been contacted by a party who wants to get in touch with David Littlefield, aka The Sheik.

I haven't heard from David for a number of years, and haven't seen posts from him on this list for quite some time, either.

If you have contact information for David, can you please share it with me, or alternatively, let David know that Meg and Big George are trying to reach him?

With my thanks,
Meg and Big George

Jazz festivals are dying.  Most audiences are old and dwindling, while
admission prices are often too high for young people (if they have ever
even heard of OKOM).  But some festivals expose young audiences to jazz.  A
good example is the Breda Jazz Festival, where "concerts are held on
various stages dispersed across Breda?s historic city centre, and all
outdoor concerts are free! An entrance fee is required for the special,
indoor concerts (the exact fee depends on the concert)."  True, it is no
longer "The Oude Stijl (old style) Jazz Festiva," but it exposes all
passers by to the various types of music featured.  Stages are scattered
over the centre of town.  So there is some sound overlap, often too much
where heavily amplified rock or zydeco bands are featured near OKOM stages,
but nevertheless people hear the music!  I have seen there four
generations, from toddlers to great grandparents, walking by or stopping to
listen.  Jazz is featured at open air restaurants and cafes, exposing more
people to music (oh, were it not for the Grotte Kirk bells which went off
every 15 minutes when I was there last).
The last time I was in Bude there were places with music which did not
require tickets, so that families had lunch with jazz - again exposure of
kids of various ages to OKOM; bands, or solo pianists, also played in parks
or squares.  In Keswick, bands were playing in some pubs without entry fees.
Cheers

 Ace guitarist Allan Jones, these many years resident in Edinburgh, has passed on the following link to the Bo Carter number, which seems an unusually chaste item for the LP on which I seem to have had the recording for some long time
The title was one of several which might have fitted
perhaps it was originally tuba speccy and the spectacles were jettisoned with an effect on clear reading
I GET THE BLUES ...?

RELISH THE FRUITY COVER DESIGN

As a trumpet player.... I wouldn't want to stand in front of me, either.
