  • @gcrav Thanks! I thought it sounded familiar.

  • @AvantGardeGuy2

    This is Chicago style. Similar instrumentation to New Orleans style, but with more emphasis on lead soloists.

  • Trumpeter's name is Eddie Smith. Drums is played by Earl Watkins. They are both of a younger generation. We have to bear in mind that this was recorded in 1961.

  • The set up for this orchestra is the classic "dixieland" fomation. Trumpet, trombone, clarinet, piano, bass and drums. Although I would not consider this the so called dixieland style. Here's a beautiful arrangement of this song by Earl Hines. Bass is played by Pops Foster, clarinet Darnell Howard and trombone Jimmy Archy, all of which are real old-timers playing beautifully, don' t you think?

  • Im not sure about the genre, but Ellington had a lot of tunes along this line. In old recordings he would call these songs his 'mood indigo' style. Also worth checking out would be New Orleans funeral march music.

  • Je vous a bien.

  • Brilliant, melancholy recording. By the way, what genre of jazz would this be considered?
