Listening to Fletcher Henderson and old Kansas City jazz reminded us of another jazz great from the 1920s, Bix Beiderbecke. "In a Mist" is one of those famous compositions we first heard several years ago, although we were always more partial to "Singing the Blues" since Beiderbecke got to shine on his main instrument. Nonetheless, it is amazing to hear such a "modern" piece from the late 1920s. It was a great loss for our music when Beiderbecke passed away.
