Comp. of Big Bass Horn are Phil Stephens-Dippy Larkin, and this strongly =

that Stephens plays the tuba here.

>>> Pete Daily's Dixieland Band

Last weekend I picked up a copy of Capitol 805 by Pete Daily's
Dixieland Band.

Master 1505=3DDaily Rag; 1507=3DBig Bass Horn Blues.  Somebody else =
thoughtfully posted it on the
internet here:

http://www.discogs.com/Pete-Dailys-Dixieland-Band-Daily-Rag-Big-Bass-Horn=
-Blues/release/3080437

Had I known to look for it instead of finding it in a pile,
I could have saved myself 99=A2.  C'est la vie, but I've certainly =
enjoyed it,=20
so it was worth it.  And, it was such a timely find with the
recent discussion of Pete Kelly's Blues.=20

I have two questions about this disc; one mechanical, one musical.

The musical question:=20
Wiki says he was Jack Webb's inspiration for his trumpeter-hero part in
Pete Kelly's Blues.  According to Feather's
New Encyclopedia of Jazz (1960), Pete was primarily a cornet player, but =
played
baritone and tuba in high school. Rust's Jazz Records (1986) shows him =
on a 1930
session playing cornet and bass sax. =20
The tuba on the solo side sure sounds like a trumpet player using a =
tuba, whereas
the tuba on the other side sure has all the robust sound lacking on the =
solo
side, leading me to conclude that Pete traded chairs with the tuba guy =
for the
solo side. =20
Can somebody confirm/deny/correct, or provide personnel for this =
session?
