@dadslbm Right on! And he gave up the national stage to return to New Orleans and open his own club. His heart was in New Orleans always.

Pete used to appear with his band on the Johnny Carson show and the audience just made them suspend the show and let Pete play. I saw him in person a bunch of times, and went out on St. Charles Ave. to talk to him when he marched at Mardi Gras. Love Pete!

Pete recorded this at the time on a Coral
records LP called "Lawrence Welk
Presents Pete Fountain" well worth
looking for as it gives the lie to the
hipper than thou jazz writers who imply
that Pete's work with Welk was nothing
but bubbles. Too bad it's not on CD.

From a guitar player: Sadly, there's not enough clarinetists of this caliber today. Pete plays Le Blanc, so did Woody Herman. Goodman and Jimmy Dorsey played Selmers and Artie Shaw played Conn. That explains all the different tones. They all sound good to me!

I'll tell everyone out there that I myself will keep dixieland jazz alive as long as I live. I think it's great to be able hear and play this kind of music. Not everyone has the talent to play this kind of jazz .
