  • HERE COMES THE HOT TAMALE MAN!!! a couple of years ago we plyed this in the school band. one of my favorites.

  • Yep, King Keppard..my all time favourite !!

    One know's he was excellent, you can tell by how many writers have maligned him over the decades.

    I don't think there is a living Brass player who has such mastery of all registers on the Cornet, especially the low. What ferocity!!.

    And what a supreme tone he has. I know he was raved about for his musical contributions to the international harvester Dance in 1930,

    might be some pic's in the company yearbook.

    Pete

  • fantastic playlist!

  • Great, Keppard was only a name to me.

  • otjf Yes,I knew that already but it is,nevertheless,regrettable for on some of his recording he,in my opinion, did not give of his best-which was extraordinary,as we all know.

  • @Squarerig Keppard was asked to make the VERY FIRST Jazz recording (before the ODJB) and he refused because he was afraid he could be copied....

  • Regrettably Keppard made so few recordings.Nevertheless those he did make display his superb mastery of his instrument.A delightful contribution.

  • King Keppard - how good is this!!

    The KIngs Of Jazz are all hereon this website - Bunk Johnson, Buddy Bolden, Freddie Keppard, Joe Oliver and the best of them all - Louis Armstrong!

    And let the debate begin - was Armstrong the greatest of all? I thinkj so, but what do you folks think?

    This is a really great jazz track!!

  • The third tune is called Brown sugar.

  • Splendid! Three tunes here - does anyone know the titles? The 3rd one is very fine and harmonically interesting. Keppard's tone is fiery and fruity - I love it. Thanks for posting!

  • Much maligned indeed, but no one can doubt his talent. Thanks for sharing.
