  17. This has proven impossible when suggested in the past.
  18.  
  19. That said, I don't see why rec.music.bluenote.early would be
  20. unworkable.  That assumes that discussions of Big Band and other early
  21. jazz forms really *are* crowded out on rec.music.bluenote, which
  22. another poster has taken issue with.
  23.  
  24. I'd say try other avenues, including mailing lists or a mainstream
  25. Usenet group, before relying on alt to do your dirty work for you.
