Dorothy died on 28 June 2022. There are downloadable copies of her major writing works on her web site (just do a search on her name and you should find it). We were married in May 1971 and I cannot express how much I miss her.

Yes indeed. A much more manic ensemble than Mnozil but combined that with superb playing and great characters. I saw them a few times at the Last Laugh in Melbourne and they remain one of the best live acts I have ever seen.

I'm working on it

@@UncleJimby1 Thanks for the clarification and happy new year 🙂

Non il y"a 4 réservoirs qui alimentent une nourrice centrale commune au 4 moteurs .

Why didn't I think of that?

Exactly!!!

I am so sorry about the fire, James. Hope your family is OK. I would be happy to replace your albums. How would you like to communicate?

@@UncleJimby1 Thank you, Jimby. My email is jdskaug@gmail.com. You know, we used to see you guys every year at the Dickens Christmas Fair and at the Harvest Festival in Sacramento. We, also, saw you in Davis at the university, i believe; and once even arranged a trip to Las Vegas when your group was going to be there - and introduced family to The Brass Band. Our son, now grown, grew up listening to your cassettes and our little '45' of Rocky meets the Moose." Since we found you online, we have downloaded what we could and have enjoyed it while driving. It brings back a lot of pleasant memories. I look forward to hearing from you.

@@jamesskaug1192 Hi James. I will shoot you an email and we'll work out how to do this.

@@UncleJimby1 Sounds great! Thanks.

Thanks Lanny! Sha-ba doo- ba-dat, ........oh baby!

Thanks, that was a fun group. Lots of good memories.

@@UncleJimby1 Are you Jim Aron ? It's a great pleasure and honor to talk with you, your Band was so much talented musicians and vocalists, you all deserved bigger success !! 😊👍

@@limu013 Yes, I'm him. Pleasure talking with you, too. Where did you see us?

@@UncleJimby1 Hello Jim, it's a real pleasure :) unfortunately i never saw you live, i was born in 1976 lol and i live in France, i would have appreciated to see live back in the days !! I have discovered you due to the great Lp compilation from 2000. So much talent in your Band, it's really impressive, what memories do you keep from that era ?? Don't you regret not agreeing to sign with a major record label ? Here's a video tribute, hope you'll enjoy : ruclips.net/video/IBtMKxiSeqU/видео.html (on the first pic, you're well in the center with mini flugelhorn ?)

@@limu013 Thanks for that tribute. I appreciate you posting that. I guess I'm a little surprised (but pleased) that you are interested in music from that era. Of course it would have been nice for the band to have gotten more recognition, but it is a tough industry. You shrug your shoulders and move on. By the way, the little horn is called a Piccolini Trumpet and is a one of a kind.

Thanks a lot!

Yes I am!

Thanks Don. I am working on getting a digital version available. BTW: There are ways to pull off RUclips stuff. Be my guest.

Jim Aron , Soprano Sackbutt, Trumpet, Recorder. I remember you Earl. The Queen comes at 3.

@@UncleJimby1 Thanks for getting back to me. There are only two people, other than Ron and his wife, who I remember with any degree of clarity: a very tall and lanky guy with dark hair and a beard (and glasses, I think) who played the sackbutt, and another sackbutt player whose name I don't remember but who I remember from his comic persona in the Brass Band, "Fritz Frumheimer", who was famous for his "triple fingerrrrrr-ing". Purely by chance I saw the Brass Band on the Gong Show a long time ago and I was all "Hey! I remember those guys!" Another person I remember was a drummer named Louis. I only remember him because he was very lod and very strange and had a big moustache. Are there any other recording of the Consortium's music? I remember all of the dance music, primarily. What do you mena by "the Queen comes at 3?". Sounds like a joke, perhaps harking back to the Ren Faire, but I'm missing the allusion. Anyway, thanks again for the music. Brought back a lot of nice memories.

@@earlhartman2486 The tall lanky guy is George Wallace and Fritz Frumheimer is Johannes Mager. both were also in the final iteration of The Brass Band along with me and Bob Jennings (sackbutt) and Bob Leach. Unfortunately, there are no other recordings of the Consortium Antiquum that I know of. At the Queen's Show at the the Ren Faire, a crier would bellow, "The Queen comes at three" (3 o'clock) at which point we (the band) would yell, "The Queen comes in quarts!" I never understood how we got away with stuff like that.

@@UncleJimby1 Have you checked with KQED or KPFA? I'm pretty sure we did a show at both places. I disticntly remember KPFA and I seem to remember KQED or some TV interview/performance we did. I remember it because Ron wore the big floppy Ren Faire hat and it completely overshadowed his face. On the monitor his face was completely dark. Probably too long ago for there to be any record of it, though. I mean, it's 50 years ago now! But it wouldn't hurt to ask, I suppose.

@@earlhartman2486 I did find references to those performances online, but not the actual performances. Too far back in time for that.

Glad you enjoyed it
