[Dixielandjazz] testing

Sat Mar 18 00:44:07 EDT 2023

Charlie Suhor checking in here. I've been on DJML for decades and enjoyed participating in the substantive exchanges with Barbone, Marek, and others about genres, particular artists, eras, etc., but that seemed to run its course’ Some of y'all kept up with up with sharing lead sheets and band videos—fair enough, of course, but apparently not enough to reach out to the larger group. 

I’ve kept my hand in as occasionally elsewhere, writing jazz book reviews and producing my late brother's 2-set jazz CD for GHB, Don Suhor: New Orleans Clarinet and Sax Virtuoso. I recommend a new book from History Press by Sam Erwin, "Hidden History of Louisiana’s Jazz Age." I've sent a review to the excellent Syncopated Times, which  has been receptive to my ideas about the recent dispute over banishing the term "Dixieland" from the jazz lexicon. 

As befits an octogenarian, I’ve moved to a retirement community in Spanish Fort, AL. It’s weird, man, being among all these OLD folks! As for myself, I prefer the the term "superannuated" to "old," and I'll smite you with my cane if you disagree.

Time will tell if this is another fad, but so far so good!

Marek, of course, was a great stimulator for discussion.  I always laughed as he was very so much stuck in his ways.  If it was the style he liked, then it was good.  He was even that way when we discussed wines privately.  And, Bob Ringwald used to keep things going.  And, we had some Aussies that were very knowledgeable.  I’m afraid I’m not great on the history of jazz discussions.  I’ve just played anything that has swing, and never really went into where it came from.

We’ve got another gig this Sunday at a club that used to feature only jazz, but now has all kinds of live music with the occasional Jazz.  Next month, a wedding, a gig at a Japanese restaurant (a know, weird!), and back to this no jazz joint (they have us in usually once a month).  So, keeping fairly busy here in Madrid.
