style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lucida Sans
Typewriter"" lang="EN-US">I’m not normally a person who
has great interest in the ins & outs of recordings as
such. I normally just enjoy the music or not. However, for
once I am curious about a recording I heard today when I
asked my “Alexa” to play music by the Dukes of Dixieland.
Horrors, some of you will be saying! “You have an Alexa?”,
or even “you would ASK to listen to the Dukes?” Hee, hee.
Yes, is the answer to both questions!.. Anyway, the magic
box played a great version of the Washington and Lee Swing.
Now, I’m not always a great fan of all the so-called
Dixieland marches, this version stood out as being very
exciting, not to mention, very fast, and very well played by
everyone. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lucida Sans
Typewriter"" lang="EN-US">I of course, love what I call
the “popping” sound by the trombone while in the lower
register, and the clarinet solo is outstanding. Does anyone
know who played clarinet on that recording? It is a long
solo, with a stop chorus of clarinet only in the middle.
Excellent, and a top note that is clear & big, and very
much in tune.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Lucida Sans
Typewriter"" lang="EN-US">I found the recording on
YouTube & it says it is Okmusix, but am not sure if that
is a record company or the person that posted the
recording. The cover is in black with only drawings on it,
and says 1958 on it. There is another recording of the same
song on the Audio Fidelity LP1823 on YouTube, also, which
seems to be the same band, and the trombone solo is very
alike if not the even same, but the clarinet solo is
shorter, without the stop bit. Strange!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
