Just examined this playlist, Andy, and one thing I don't believe I've complimented you on throughout the years is your use of contemporary performers within the overall Radiola concept.
Dan Levinson's great group and pianist Frederick Hodges {someone I've introduced many times from stages of The Sacramento Jazz Jubilee & The West Coast Ragtime Festival} are just two examples of how you've merges these recent recordings into vintage shows seamlessly...and your choices of artists are wonderful.
Also, by adding performances issues on such fabulous labels as Stomp Off, Rivermont, Frog, Jump, and especially the great Archeophone, you're providing a musical service to your loyal audience!
Thanks!

Nick,
Thank you! I was finally able to meet Bryan Wright who produces the Rivermont CDs this past Saturday, and he's one of the best. The Frederick Hodges disc is brand new and beautifully recorded. It's a gem.
I do concentrate on shellac, but it's great to present musicians who are keeping great music alive in performance--and the CDs of reissuers who know what they're doing.
I appreciate that you enjoy them!
Andy
