I recall @Lango-Django posting interesting material by her.

In this Jazz FM program, Session Notes, she talks about her experience recording 1930s style in N Orleans onto a shellac disk.

Also references Django, Armstrong and other swing artists of the period.

    Thanks, Bill.

    I first met Alex when she was sixteen and first became interested in classic jazz.

    It is a source of great satisfaction to me that her love and dedication for the 78 era jazz style has continued all these years and broadened and deepened.

    Merry Christmas!

    Will

    PS We’re having a hell of a winter storm here in North America right now, hope the weather in Portugal is better…

    Paul Cezanne: "I could paint for a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing."

    Edgar Degas: "Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things.... To draw, you must close your eyes and sing."

    Georges Braque: "In art there is only one thing that counts: the bit that can’t be explained."
