I have come across a new orleans street band on tube8 and it is
currently fascinating me. The name of the band is yes ma'am.
Does anyone like traditional jazz?
Thought I'd write as a happy post after reading some of the sad ones
posted by those currently suffering with their arthritis conditions on
the lwa site.

    Yes traditional Jazz is OK although I don't have any CD's on this style of music I have a strange eclectic mix though goes from rap to opera, I love Pink Floyd Dark side of the moon its still a XXXXXX good album what a thing to have created its stood the test of time, well modern time!.

    Hello Marie,

    One of my favourite all-time jazz bands - Ian Menzies and the
    Clyde Valleys Stompers; just listen to them banging out Battle
    Hymn of the Republic. I might have it as the entrance music as
    they push me down the aisle at my funeral.

    My brother has played in amateur jazz bands all his life until he got sick of trying to stuff his drums in his small car. They're strange people jazz musicians - everyone wants to play: no-one wants to organise. One of his groups had a good gig here. Everyone wanted them to come again but no-one wanted to organise it :roll:
