A Great Post at The Wreckroom

Check out this great post! I met Sleepbomb through blogville and I have frequented his site The Wreckroom ever since, little did I know his father was Freddie Assunto of The Dukes of Dixieland, who passed away in 1966. I have some recordings of them with Louis Armstrong, his father was a fantastic Trombonist and showman! Anyway, read the story, this post is part of what makes the internet great, I love to hear people's stories.

Thanks also for your kind words on my guestbook, and for your comments! I hope I get down for next Jazzfest, if I do, I might just take you up on that offer. Thanks for the great article and for steering me to take a closer look at The Dukes of Dixieland, The Sullivan vid just blew my mind! It's nice to find such an interesting person that has similar interests. Keep up the great writing at The Wreckroom!
