Title: Dixie by Daily Can't be Beat
Review: The original 10 inch LP was my very first Dixieland album when I was in high school and I've never been disappointed with Pete's recordings. It later came out as a very early Capitol 12" LP and I'd love to see it in a CD. Pete's recordings are recognized as clean and imaginative, often using Pud Brown on clarinet or on this LP Stan Story, with Warren Smith of the Bob Crosby Bobcats on trombone and George Defebaugh on drums. Songs like "Sensation Rag"(using a ragtime piano),"Original Dixieland One Step", "At the Georgia Camp Meeting", and "Put On Your Old Grey Bonnet" are catchy and represent some excellent arrangements. Pete Daily is recognized by Bob Scobey as one of the bands instrumental in the revival of traditional jazz on the west coast in the l950's, hence the low numbers on his LPs--This one was Capitol l83, I believe. See him on DVD with his Chicagoans.
