Buy Now	New Orleans, Vol. 1 (more) »rank: 12314 by: Preservation Hall Jazz Band : :Preservation Hall has been a New Orleans landmark since 1961, when it first began providing a regular stage for the city's traditional musicians. It quickly became the object of regular pilgrimages for traditional musicians and enthusiasts around the world. By the time this recording was made in 1976, the official band had coalesced around the Humphrey brothers, Percy on trumpet and Willie on clarinet, veterans already in their 70s. Their age shows only in their fidelity to the music's repertoire and instrumentation, with the band still using a banjo player, Narvin Kimball, and the younger tubaist Allan Jaffe in place of a string ...

Buy Now	Preservation Hall jazz Band - New Orleans, Vol. 2 (more) »rank: 120130 by: Preservation Hall Jazz Band : :Like its predecessor, this 1981 recording is as true as possible to the spirit, and even the letter, of the music that found form in New Orleans in the first decades of this century, music that had changed rapidly in the move to Chicago in the 1920s.

The style is classic polyphony, with Frank Demond's trombone and Willie Humphrey's clarinet developing elaborate patterns around Percy Humphrey's stately and burnished trumpet leads; the music is ...
