A living homage to one of the great bands and recordings of all time -- the "Chocolate Dandies" I NEVER KNEW of 1933, which featured Benny Carter, Max Kaminsky, Floyd O'Brien, Chu Berry, Teddy Wilson, Lawrence Lucie, Ernest Hill, Sidney Catlett -- here reimagined by Marc Caparone, cornet; Bryan Shaw, trumpet; Dan Barrett, trombone; Jeff Barnhart, piano; Katie Cavera, bass; Ralf Reynolds, washboard; John Reynolds, guitar. Recorded at Dixieland Monterey on March 5, 2011 by Michael Steinman for JAZZ LIVES: http://www.jazzlives.wordpress.com.
