This recording is the real new orleans music,so laid back ,I've not got this recording in my collection.I met some of these guys on my first trip to new orleans in 1973.
Utterly fabulous its such a pleasure to find recxordings like this on you tube!! It's such a pity that the number of viewings is so low - this kind of music is so rare and so precious
and so misunderstood by the general public Thanks for posting it
great recording, like you are listening to a band live in a hall - very nice, ernie cagnolatti on trumpet i presume? creole guesnon always add a great presence to any record he is on and slow drag is incomparable - that bunk and later george lewis band had the best drive ever - fantastic music - again i finally can say thank you Chris for recording such great music in a society that did not (and still does not) know how valuable this music really is
Thank you, Yves. Yes, that is Ernest Cagnolatti. I inadvertently left his name out and could not find a way to edit it in. Glad you mentioned him, he was wonderful.
Wonderful!

Thank you for your comment. Raymond was on my list, but he couldn't make it. I think he was ill.
