One day a man wearing a Western-style hat with a red bandanna around his neck walked into our store and announced that he was Jelly Roll Morton, the greatest stomp and blues piano player this side of New Orleans. Cassius Clay had nothing on Jelly Roll! - Lester Melrose, comparing Jelly roll Morton to a young (pre name change) Mohammed Ali

Hi Stefan,
Thanks very much for letting us know about the additions to your web site, and especially the Mamlish discography and the discography of Pete Franklin.  I feel a lot of respect and affection for Don Kent's Mamlish Records--it was a tremendous re-issue label, something like Origin Jazz Library but even more difficult to find in stores.  Don gets big points from me for re-issuing a lot of Freddie Spruell and being the first to get out Lane Hardin's songs.  The discography on Pete Franklin is tragically short.
All best,
Johnm
