1. Great work Grampa! Neat solo at 0:30!
2. How good is it to dig into where it all comes from and figure out new ways to do it? The best! 😊

Thanks for listening to it - Dixieland music fell out of favor for the most part, but he was really good at it.

Me, playing the same clarinet, on the track below. I don't quite have the skill my grandfather had at it.

Never made a video for this one.

I like Dixieland sometimes, but mainly as a way to understand Blues rhythms better. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Well done on the song. As for your clarinet playing, full marks! I dig the roomy-sounding reverb on it, too. πŸ‘

A mate of mine once tried to teach me clarinet and oboe in an attempt to help me stay in the school orchestra, but I failed.

In the end, I managed to stay in by playing timpani and percussion πŸ˜‚
