Band Members enjoyed Leon Breeden and the Official Texas Jazz Orchestra at the Duck Inn--Pictures by Ron Kukal

This was an e-mail sent to me by Ron about the night at Duck Inn:

Below is a link to pictures someone else took when Leon
Breeden was playing with the band.

This is the North Texas website...

It was an unbelievable evening. The band was the best I think I have
ever heard...great jazz. The Duck Inn was jammed
to the rafters with people...glad there was no
fire...I think 27 people from NHBD.....not a bad
showing..the food was great and the music even better. I wish
you could have been there, Mary.

Mr. Breeden is essentially the guy that started the
music program at North Texas in the late 50's...and
the One O'Clock Lab Band. A great man.

Ron, Thank you for the information and the great pictures. I wish that I could have gone. I am glad that everyone had a good time. I had a very nice time visiting my daughter from South Carolina. Mary.
