Marty Grosz and Al Casey on NPR

Thanks to Molehill for reminding me of this!

Last year Marty Grozs was interviewed on NPR's Fresh Air, in celebration of the Fats Waller centennial. During the interview they called up Al Casey and spoke with him about playing with Fats. Here's the audio link!

    You know, when this show first aired, there were people in the Yahoo Gypsy Jazz Guitar group complaining that Marty is over-rated and not such a "hot-shot"... pul-ease! He is such a cool, natural swinger: I told them (as they argued about "what would Django say?") that Mr. DR, if traveling in a motor car when this interview aired would say LOUDLY "Turn it up and pipe down!"
