Thanks Seabreeze!
"The rugged lines of Burke's playing..." - I've probably shared this with you before...but it comes from within the same 1958 Second Line mentioned above, so seems applicable to mention here too:
"One summer night, I [Al Rose] was talking with the late George Girard during an intermission in front of The Famous Door. 'Al,' he said, 'I'm going to be needing a clarinet player. Got any ideas?'
'How about Raymond?' I suggested.
'Man, that would be plain heaven!' George laughed, 'But, if I had him, I'd still need a clarinet player!'"
