Jim R Posted July 28, 2005 Report Posted July 28, 2005 Ah, Jazzbeaux (or as he often pronounced- "Jazzbox" ("... in the purple grottox"). I miss the guy... used to watch him on UHF when he had "Jazzbo's Open House" on channel 26... at 5 a.m. I also used to listen to him on KSFO (AM radio), KCSM (FM), and a couple of other stations. He didn't play good music all that often but I dug his humor. As for Lon, haven't we been over this connection before? Quote

Dave James Posted July 28, 2005 Report Posted July 28, 2005 (edited) I'll leave it up to Lon's legal team to make the call, but I think we may be looking at some copyright infringement here. Up over and out. Edited July 28, 2005 by Dave James Quote
Jim R Posted July 28, 2005 Report Posted July 28, 2005 maybe before my time? ← Or, maybe not. I guess Lon wasn't "Jazzbo" before this board... unless he used it at the Verve or Harlem or ? boards... Anyway, Collins switched from "Jazzbo" to "Jazzbeaux" around 1969, so Lon seems to be in the clear. Was anybody "Jazzbo" from 1969 to 2003? I don't really care, I'm just making conversation. Quote
ghost of miles Posted July 28, 2005 Report Posted July 28, 2005 Inspiration for the non-posting Jazzooo? Quote

jazzbo Posted July 31, 2005 Report Posted July 31, 2005 Yes, I spent last Sunday through last night at the Halukelani in Waikiki. . . it was heaven on earth! I actually used the cover image of the Bethlehem "The View from Jazzbo's Head" as an avatar last year for a while but. . . my inspiration for the handle was a tin toy my great uncle had when I was a kid called "Jazzbo Jim." He was a minstrel-banjoist. As my grandfather played banjo, this toy meant something to me. . . . And it makes a good handle. . . . (Would be even better if I were a "James"!) Quote
Bright Moments Posted August 7, 2005 Author Report Posted August 7, 2005 Jazzbo Brown from Memphis Town, He's a clarinet hound! He can't dance, He can't sing, But Lawdy, how he can play that thing! He ain't seen no music, too. He can't read a note. But he's the playin'est fool On that Memphis boat. Quote
