[78-L] "Remeber My Forgotten Band"

[Taylor Bowie]

On the sweet side,  certainly my old fave Paul Pendarvis would be right up 
there...a very distinctive and subtle sound.

And Orville Knapp as well...but hey,  these days are there ANY bands from 
the era which aren't  "forgotten" by most people?  I have spoken to college 
grads in their late 20s who have never heard of  anyone other than 
Ellington,  Basie,  Goodman and Miller.
