Following the info on the latest Off The Record/Archeophone, I'd like to draw your attention to three new CDs on the Frog label. They are: Frog Spawn - the...
Absolutely brilliant stuff. I remember hearing about these German groups back in the days of the Weimar Republic, before Hitler took over. My great-uncle was...
Jack, Sounds like you and I have something in common. My great uncle, Ben Pickering, was also in some of the first American jazz groups to come to Europe in...
All of my stories come via my father, who knew his uncle Ted Noyes well. The only times I ever saw him, I was too young to remember. My father used to talk...
Jack: I have two photos of Tommy Dorsey Orch. here, do you recognize your uncle in either one? I'm trying to put names with faces. For all I know, these...
I don't think the photos I attached came through, must not accept attachments. In any case, I posted the photos in the Files section, so you can access them...
Rob, Absolutely they did know each other and played in the same band. Your great-uncle Ben Pickering was in the Frank Guarente's World Known Georgians along...
As a postscript to my last message, check out Frank Guarente's World Known Georgians doing Hard-To-Get-Gerty. Ted Noyes was the vocalist as well as the...
Found only one photo of Ben that I can definitively say was taken while he was with the Georgians, I posted the photo (Ben and Eddie Bave) in the Files folder....
Extremely cool! I will go into my big box of old photos tonight and look to see if I can find any photos of Frank Guarente's Georgians. If I find any, I will...

Regarding the Bernie Young CD, Frog really do know what takes they used. There was a proof-reading failure. Paul Swinton advises me that the takes actually...
Rob, That's a great photo of Ben Pickering and Eddie Bave in the files section. If you notice, the top of the signboard lists Max van Gelder as the director...
Found the link. As I mentioned, the pdf is in Dutch; so, if any Dutch member wants to take the time to translate it, even if it's only a little at a time,...
I wish I had your knowledge of early jazz, it would make so much more sense going through all of this stuff I have. I have so many photos with no description...

My knowledge, Rob, as far from as great as you might think. You didn't pay enough attention to your great-uncle Ben Pickering while he was still lucid. I...
I found a 115-page pdf on Jazz in Europe, which includes a substantial section on the Georgians. It's a section of a book, the title of which is not listed on...
