<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>KCSM is an excellent jazz radio station; I
discovered it while surfing the web about a year and a half ago. Mal
Sharpe's program is great as well. It's an excellent jazz mix that
includes OKOM as well as other various styles. They have a 24 hour a
day live feed so anyone anywhere can listen at <A

Dixieland" (the band)</DIV>

FAMILY="SANSSERIF">Hi Folks:<BR>This band was mentioned in a recent post. The
group plays at the "No Name Bar" in Sausalito on Sun afternoons and having
some free time yesterday, I decided to check them out.<BR><BR>Mal Sharpe,
famous for his "Man in the Street" interviews in the 1960s in San Francisco is
the leader and front man of the band. Mal also hosts a radio show every
Sun.nite on KCSM, 91.1FM, San Mateo, Ca. It is a combination of call in and
anecdotal information about the current and past jazz scene of the SF Bay
Area. Tune in if you can; it's a fun show.<BR><BR>Mal has put together a
very entertaining musical group among whom were: Clint Baker, string bass, Tom
Buck, cornet, Carl Lunsford, banjo, Pete Devine, washboard and Chinese blocks,
and a reedman whose name I can't recall.<BR><BR>Picture this: a cozy bar (no
smoking per Calif. law), a blend of tourists and appreciative
jazzbo's, gorgeous ambiance...Sausalito...and a great band! Can it get
any better?<BR><BR>A word about the personnel: Tom Buck, Jack Buck's son is an
outstanding melodic cornetist who has a unique, powerful yet tasty approach.
Carl Lunsford, banjo, projects a clear concept with precise strumming which
blends well with Clint Baker's solid bass line. Pete Devine is an entertaining
percussionist assuming a unique posture of leaning into his equipment which
consists of washboard, Chinese Blocks, 2 splash cymbals, and snare and small
bass drum. He provides clever accentual touches with an underlying sense of
humor. Pete listens carefully and responds to the melody while keeping a
delicate pulse to keep the group together. <BR><BR>The unknown clarinet
man complemented the melodic duties and matched the strength of the
cornet. He also played sop sax with impeccable intonation.<BR><BR>Mal
Sharpe plays boldly with traces of Jim Robinson and Vic Dickenson. Mal
is a showman. He is a lumbering fellow of about 6' 4" always glancing at the
audience trying to transmit a bit of joy. <BR><BR>I have no connection with
this band other than becoming a new fan and hopefully a repeat
customer.<BR><BR>Sincerely,<BR>Art Wood<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>
