    my friend had piles of records mainly jazzish stuff. Walked out with a few goodies. This is ragtimey jazziness. bangs. 1935 baby. I'm always a little late to the party.

    I have to admit I am not really a jazz listener. But my ex used to love jazz and the one musician that I used to always request him to play was Dave Brubeck. I really like Take Five. I was actually thinking of buying one of his albums with that song on it.

    One is a really collectable 'ristic 22' a comp of some of his salvaged trashed recordings. I'm not sick on collecting this stuff but sure it will be something I'll spin into my later years if I'm 'lucky' Lou.

    I never appreciated Dixieland at all until one day (I think it was maybe 1985) my pop asked if I wanted to go with him to see The Preservation Hall Jazz Band.  I said, "Sure, let's do it."   I wasn't expecting more than just a little much needed bonding time with the old man, but it turned out to be a lot of fun and a great time.  The band played under a big tent and it the whole show had this great festive feel and the musicians- all of whom were old, old guys, really had the stuff.  It was great!

    Yes. They still rock it.^^^ creatively too. They jammed heavy with my morning jacket at a benefit show I was at. Saw them a few time in the past 10 years. Older dudes and younger. Real great feel good music. Danny Clinch had them play at his book signing here in NJ. Sure a lot of us pj freaks saw them there.

    Hey jazz fans, here's a way you can help struggling jazz musicians during these very tough times.  This is a great organization that give jazz musicians much needed help:


    Give what you can, and in return, this is the kind of love you get back.  A very solid investment!:
