Dixieland land style traditional jazz has real meaning. It is not “jazz” as played by the mis-named mis-named by “modern jazz” movement. Beloved by colleges and uni’s. Long solos to show off the virtuoso of varies band members. Frequently undanceable. The playing of “Standards” that are no longer recognisable. Using Big Band charts by (name the great Band Leader, say Glen Miller) but not playing his chart. The art of melody dead and buried by technical misuse and abuse of technique.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 21px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: 19.666668px; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Dixieland and (being originally UK) “Traditional Jazz” are what I go to Festivals to hear. Organizers bring in other styles of bands and that add nice variety. But when the band line-up is swamped by non-traditional bands has always been the signal that this is a festival that in trying to bring in a new clientele are actually shooting themselves in the foot. Younger people will love genuine Dixieland if given the chance. A friend of mine went to San Diego to hear Dixieland and there was so much choice he and his girl friend ended up going to rooms that played some sort of “pop” that they could have heard back home thus hinting that htere is no need to go to the festival.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 21px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: 19.666668px; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Dixieland has a place in the history of music and dance.

We’ve just lost a lot of members, and particularly those that did the “jammin’” (not musically speaking, but with words). 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. <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 21px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span lang="EN-US"> <o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 21px; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span lang="EN-US">The Canal Street Jazz Band is still honking, albeit having lost a number of jazz sites during the pandemic, and to economics in general. 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).
