My New Years Eve trio, “The Heirloom Trio” just got confirmed to play a nice gig later this Spring and the client requested some audio clips for promotion. Since the Heirloom Trio has not recorded anything so far, I posted a link to a bunch of tracks from “Wise Guys Down In Dixieland” of the Golden Gate Rhythm Boys, a similar trio composed of Jim Rothermel, Bill Maginnis (drums) and me.\u00a0It is actually two s\"\"<\/a>eparate recordings, the latter one a quartet with John Moore on tuba rather than me playing pedal bass. There is also one track, “Lydia, The Tatooed Lady” with the late Bill Carroll on tuba, sadly, the last thing he ever recorded.<\/p>\n

This May, 2019, will mark the eighth anniversary of Jim’s death and I still miss playing with him. Listening to some of the tracks I am again struck by how wonderful he sounds on whatever reed instrument he happened to be playing at any one time. I think you will probably agree.<\/p>\n
