Title: A Great Session of Real New Orleans Jazz
Review: Absolute gem of a session. Whether or not the food and drink contributed, the music made on that cold day is absolutely wonderful. Kid Sheik, Paul Barnes, and Earl Humphrey make an exceptional front line and all sound inpired. The rhythm section just kicks it along in fine fashion, Barry Martyn providing the extra spark that puts the life into this one. It's a great selection of tunes. "Cryin' Time Again" stays in your head forever.Location recordings like this one were always a gamble. A few of them, fortunately, captured the true essence of real New Orleans jazz in its most ecstatic and memorable form. This is one of them. Well recorded, with a warmth, presence, and atmosphere that connects you to the time, location, and excitement of the moment. Recommended.
