Everybody Loves my Baby - Gene Mayl 1982

Everybody Loves my Baby - Gene Mayl 1982

A fine supportive bass player in Dixieland settings, Gene Mayl was most significant as a leader of stimulating and hard-swinging bands that went under the name of the Dixieland Rhythm Kings. He founded the group in 1948, and they were active into the 1980s. Mayl spent 1948 and 1949 in France during which time he played with Claude Luter, Don Byas and Claude Bolling. In addition to his own groups, Mayl played with many trad jazz all-stars including Bob Scobey, Muggsy Spanier, Billy Maxted, Wild Bill Davison and George Brunies. For many years he was a major force in the Dixieland movement of the Midwest. Mayl and his Dixieland Rhythm Kings made many recordings including Audiophile, Jazzology and Fat Cat's Jazz.
In this clip we see Gene with the following band: Famous cornettist Ernie Carson: Kim Cusack (usually with the Salty Dogs) clarinet and vocal; Hans Kuenzel trombone; the outstanding pianist John Ulrich on piano and Ken Hall playing drums

I love this song. Check out my channel for Bob Schulz's Frisco Jazz Band playing Everybody Loves My Baby sung by none other than Kim Cusack.

I became a fan of Gene Mayl and the Dixieland Rhythm Kings one night, overflowing the basement of a terrible little place on the edge of Dayton,OH. Gene played Tuba in that band - announced the tunes with a megaphone. From New York I had no idea good Dixieland was played in farm country. That band was a rough little piece of heaven. I still have and treasure his Jazz Disc 4AB and 5AB Ancient Bottle Strut, Tin Roof Blues, Steamboat Stomp and Terrible Blues, sold at the gig.
