How I love the vitality of Trad Jazz and I totally love the talent of these wonderful musicians and the enjoyment they have of their performance...cheers

The Hall was much darker and grungier (and still is) which is a chunk of its charm.

Can anyone ID the other players?

There are two bitter people in this world that disliked this song. Go have a coke and a smile!

I think my ascendant uncle would appreciate this interpretation as I do.

Schade, eigentlich, dass sich solche wunderbare Musik, nur noch ca. 2,5 % der Leute anhören

Most modern dixielanders even lack the ability to keep up a steady tempo. These grampies roll along with the power of a locomotive and the elegance of a ballerina.

Atmosferę podkręca też ten onanizujący się facet w pierwszym rzędzie ; )

Sobre las Olas, by Juventino Rosas, he was a Mexican musician, he died in 1849. He was a great composer, even no many people know who he was, but Im sure he can be proud to know that his music is world wide known.!!! Live for ever Juventino Rosas!!!

[infrogmation]

@cepillin2008 Typo; Rosas died in 1894. "Sobre las Olas" or "Over the Waves" is probably his most famous composition. It was first published in New Orleans in 1884 while Rosas was in the city with the Mexican national band for the World's Fair. It has been part of the New Orleans repertory ever since.

This is MUSIC

[Theresefs]

One of my earliest memories is standing on a bar stool in "Dirty Helens" restaurant, in Newport, Kentucky, across the river from Cincinnati, and hearing George Lewis and his band. My father and some fellow jazz fans from Cincinnati, would sponsor the band's trip up from New Orleans to play. Just hearing this brings back so many memories.

Amazing I love It Than You

[cucarachon]

this piece was written by the mexican waltz composer Juventino Rosas. its nice to see a jazz version of it =)

[klikonojazz]

Unfortunatly I wasn't there but this tune (amongst others) is on a DVD that Geoffrey Bull (Australien tp-player) sells. The title of this DVD ist "George Lewis in Japan 1962". Besides that I read the book "George Lewis" by tom Bethell. From all these informations I really think that they rebuilt Preservation Hall in Japan. Sorry but I do not have the Address of Geff Bull! Yours KliKo

[klikonojazz]

As far as I know, this recording was made in Japan and not at Preservation Hall

[erwigfilms]

Then they recreated the looks of Preservaton Hall just for this film. Everyting is possible, however, the music was made by original New Orleans men.

[klikonojazz]

That's absolutely true. If you watch the poster on the wall (Requests), you can see that in New Orleans the letters are white on a black background, while here the letters are black on a white background.

[erwigfilms]

Remarkable, were you there or someone you know or

knew?

[punchsboy]

Preservation Hall was never that clean--you are right, this is Japan.

[Jazzbobill]

Wonderful George with that great tone and phrasing.Swinging all the way with Louis Nelson in great form. The Japanese really know their New Orleans jazz. Did you notice the classic picture of the early King Oliver band on the wall? An historical clip Bob!!

[kpjjazz]

Lovely to hear-and-see them. George is wonderful here. I think the others are;Punch,Nelson,Sayles,Watkin­s & John Joseph. Thanks again Bob.
