Hardbopjazz Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 You would think by now Mosaic would have put out a Mosaic Select. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffcrom Posted September 7, 2012 Report Share Posted September 7, 2012 A shout out to Buddy Bolden Sept 6 Thanks for pointing this out, Slide/Greg. I make a point of driving by Bolden's house on First Street every time I'm in New Orleans. And I think I may have told this story before, but on one of my annual visits, before Katrina, I was walking through Armstrong Park, which was carved out from the Treme neighborhood. One of the few buildings they didn't demolish when the built the park was the Masonic Lodge known locally as Perseverance Hall, where Buddy Bolden is known to have played dances. It had always been locked up tight whenever I had visited Armstrong Park, but on this occasion there was some renovation work going on, and the doors were open. I walked in and just stood for awhile, knowing that I was in a holy place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
