Hey! So glad to see you! It was a thrill to hear you mention my name on your clip! That's a nickname from my childhood that I use on the Internet. Frankly I think you are lovesick for New Orleans. You've been sick since your return! Hubby and I really missed your postings daily. Its our daily tonic when we get up late morning. Welcome back and take care of yourself. Plugging for you to get back to New Orleans! xxx
In the meantime, I'm currently working on cleaning up (aurally as well as physically) a worn, but solid copy of the Larry Clinton composition "A Study In Blue" by Erskine Hawkins - I'll keep you posted on the progress (already transferred, but MAJOR aural cleaning needed on this MAJOR swinger).
@SwingMan1937 Thanks. :) I wanted to know if you have any Turner Layton's. He's not really swing, I guess. He's a pianist from that era who sings and plays jazz standards. He's really talented, but very unknown. Check him out, if you don't know who he is. (:
Hope your all better now. This warmer than normal la nina winter doesn't help matters I'm sure.
Take care!

@astrosafari727 You bet, Jeff - the trip back to Jim Russell's Records alone this trip looks to be a video diary in itself. ;)

Hey, Swingman. Hope you're feeling better. :) I have a music request, if this is the appropriate time. :P

@AdamMitchyCat Just about anytime is appropriate for a music request. ;)
What do you have in mind?
