[Dixielandjazz] Jack Mitchell OAM

[Bill Haesler]

Good morning Jazzmates,
Yesterday, 26 January 2019, was Australia Day (a national holiday). 
On that day Australian Honours are awarded and Jack Mitchell received a well-earned OAM (Order of Australia Medal) for his many, many years "of services to jazz."
Well done, his peers have finally thanked him for all the published Australian Jazz on Record research and discographies and other numerous jazz books.  
Kind regards,
Bill.
