Altoalto has it dead right. Although nothing quite compares with the 1929 Jabbo recording of Decatur Street Tuti, for my money 1980's Hot Antic is the best band ever. Shame nothing lasts forever!
Every time I hear an original version of tunes played by this band (i.e from King Oliver or Clarence williams) I come to the same conclusion: what this French band does with Bonnel & Bastide is better (as for my opinion) than the original.
