"I'M CONFESSIN': DUKE HEITGER and FRIENDS at the ATLANTA JAZZ PARTY (April 17, 2015)

Recorded on April 17, 2015, by Michael Steinman for JAZZ LIVES (www.jazzlives.wordpress.com).

Several years ago on one of our many trips to NOLA and on one of our many trips on The Natchez, we had been up and down the Mississippi but we had to disembark and re-enter before going on the trip again. As we left the ship my wife Nancy said to Duke, the leader of the band, "Will you save our seats?" And HE DID. WHAT A GUY. Great times Duke. Thx much. Wayne & Nancy. Canada

Hi Duke, It is just so good to hear you continuing to blow such great notes - certainly time you came back to visit us here at the bottom of the world.
