A tribute to George Lewis. George Gilmour in Bill Salmond's Louisiana Ragtime Band, from Edinburgh, Scotland, plays "St. Philip street breakdown" at Glossop Jazz Festival 1996. George Gilmour, clarinet, Graham Scott, piano, Bill Salmond, banjo, Bill Bryden, bass, and Eric Jamieson, drums. You can look and listen to more of George Gilmour at http://redwing.lassecollin.se/georgegilmour.html
Sure brings back happy memories of when my old band, the Crescent City Stompers, used to play that George Lewis tune and many other New Orleans favourites, back in the early 50's. Glad to see the "young" guys are still keeping the tradition alive. Well done George and the rhythm section.
