Jimmy Mazzy fans love this - he gets to sing many songs at
the AJC. I Ain't Got Nobody, I Would Do Most Anything For You,
Love Is Just Around the Corner. His banjo introduced a rarity
- Take Your Tomorrow and Give Me Today. From Monday On - A sweet rendition of this Bix
classic with
vocal by Jimmy Mazzy,

Diga Diga Doo - Steve Taddeo stomps around to this Dorothy Fields/Jimmy McHugh classic.

Bass sax intro
for the first chorus of
Wabash Blues, shades of
Giordano!! Scotty replying with myriad cornet notes.
Jimmy interjecting a snippet of If I Could Be With You.
Taddeo lightly tapping closed cymbal. Scotty recalled Bubber Miley's
mesmerizing wa wa muted cornet for most of Washington Square. Drummer Steve Taddeo even took a vocal on After
You've Gone. Fun afternoon! Gut-Bucket bass player Dave
First and his wife Nancy had a perfect view centered at the bar.
Carrie Mazzy took the vocal on Ma, He's
Making Eyes At Me, ending with a sweet duet with hubby Jimmy.
Scott lead Fidgety Feet with John on clarinet flickering all
around him like a bumble bee. Bob added a fine string bass solo on Nagasaki,
played especially for Wil Smith, noted photographer and avid jazz
fan, and also on I''ve Got The World On a String. It Don't
Mean a Thing If It Ain't Got That Swing - Frank had that piano
swinging!!
They closed the afternoon with
a sweet Jimmy Mazzy vocal on
I'll Be Your Friend with Pleasure and San.
We love
jazz in the afternoon,
especially a bright sunny August day like this!
The Seacoast Stompers will begin their 3rd year at the Acton Jazz
