brycon wites:
''Here's some N.O. style jazz that I could listen to all day:''

It's brilliant music without a doubt and I like it immensely - it's not what I'd call New Orleans jazz though.

Without wanting to open up a musical can of worms, I'd say this performance was more inspired by Django Reinhardt and the Hot Club of France with Ken Peplowski replacing the violin - both soloists are putting forward virtuoso performances.

I don't think New Orleans was necessarily on the minds of any of the players at the time.

Hank Lehrer says:
''One point that seems to be missed is that WA has surrounded himself with good musicians.''

I rather thought I had covered that point with this: ''I would be confident in stating that the group is, collectively, extremely competent.''. Further to this I'd suggest that whilst this is true, a really ropey musician will drag a group down to a lower level.

I don't think WA is guilty of this generally speaking, however, whilst GBK's sample of WA's playing is hardly inspiring, the majority of his work is quite good, and I say again it should be borne in mind, New Orleans jazz is jazz for dancing. It is a collective effort and not a collection of virtuosos.
