Sorry to confess the last time I spoke with him, i think I upset him. I said I thought the Whiteman/Bix recordings had been an excellent choice for the ghostly music in The Shining. It really sounded like a haunted ballroom. Almost too old fashioned to look at rationally. http://www.bixbeiderbecke.com/ As usual I was wrong, I hadn't listened hard enough. |
