O’s Notes: The Jazz Worms are Andy Weyl (p), Keith Oxman (t-sax), Paul Romaine (d), Ron Miles (cornet) and Mark Simon (b). They got together back in 1984 and recorded Crawling Out in 1987. They are a Denver band and perform live on occasion. Capri’s Tom Burns enjoyed their live performance and recorded this effort in November 2017. Squirmin’ was just released in early 2021 proving that some good things take a bit of time. Yes, the music is at least as good as the story: bubbly, flowing originals that are catchy. We’ll be looking for them in Denver!
