In Memory of George Hunt, Dixieland Jazz Drummer
We can cheer for George Hunt. He made it to the BIG GIG! Right now he is probably
playing drums with St. Peter's All Star Dixieland Jazz Band.
He is explaining the composition of a Dixieland jazz band to St. Peter. It MUST include a
cornet/trumpet, a clarinet, and a trombone. The other instruments may vary, but they
usually include, drums, tuba, banjo, piano, string bass, and perhaps a female singer.
I asked George to save me a seat on the bandstand at The Pearly Gates SpeakEasy.
(I play C-Melody Washboard)
I can hear the band now--cutting loose with The Tri-State Strutter's Ball.
Sincerely, Jazz Bo Jay Schultz, Tri-State Jazz Society Volunteer
