I didn’t know about Trumbauer’s flying history! In fact, if I hadn’t been a Bix fan, I’d never have known of Trumbauer. I also didn’t know about his influence on Prez.
We used to joke about Whiteman’s claim to being “The King of Jazz.” More like “King of White Man.”
As always, thank you, Tyler, for your outstanding scholarship and musical taste.
Oh, good, I’m glad you liked that stuff! Yeah, I highly recommend big ears if you can swing it. Also, I look forward to reading more of your writing here. It’s always nice to find more people who are interested in the spectrum from trumbauer to McPhee. I don’t hear artists of that stature as being as different from one another as most people do, even if stylistically they’re obviously pretty different.

Thanks for coming along, C.L. I often think about your improvised harp song from your earlier band. I loved that - unique.
Well, I didn’t expect to see any Trumbauer-related content today. Subscribed!
Thanks for walking with us, Karl. I've wanted to get down to Knoxville, but I haven't yet. So it was nice to read your Big Ears 3-part review.
