Good times in Tinseltown June 20, 2005
Here the George Lewis Ragtime Band comprises Lewis (clarinet), Kid Howard (trumpet, vocals), Jim Robinson (trombone), Alton Purnell (piano), Lawrence Marrero (banjo), Slow Drag Pavageau (double bass) and Joe Watkins (drums, vocals). The recordings were made live at a Hollywood club in 1953.
The veteran New Orleans players seem clumsy and shaky at times but honest as the day is long and, on this occasion, they were in very good spirits.
The CD has booklet notes by Scott Yanow, and it plays for nearly an hour. The sound is clear, although on many tracks the brass is too sharp for my ears. For this I dock the record one point. Call me sensitive.
