Our Take

Alright mate, let's talk about this absolute corker of an album - SATCHMO / KID ORY / HOT 5 / ETC Very Best Of Dixieland - New Orleans.

This collection of tunes is like a mouthful of jellied eels - it's rich, lively, and full of flavour. From Louis Armstrong's iconic trumpet solos to Kid Ory's swingin' trombone riffs, this album will have you tappin' your toes and wigglin' your hips like a right ol' jitterbug.

The tracklist reads like a who's who of New Orleans jazz - "Potato Head Blues," "Muskrat Ramble," and "Savoy Blues" are just a few of the gems you'll find on here. Each tune is like a little slice of N'awlins magic, transporting you to the smoky bars and bustling streets of the Big Easy.

But what really sets this album apart is the energy and passion that oozes out of every note. The musicians on these recordings are playin' like their lives depend on it, injectin' every melody with soul and spirit. It's infectious, mate - you'll find yourself grinnin' from ear to ear with each listen.

So grab yourself a glass of bourbon, put on your dancing shoes, and get ready to party like it's Mardi Gras with SATCHMO / KID ORY / HOT 5 / ETC Very Best Of Dixieland - New Orleans. This album is a bobby dazzler, and it gets a solid 9/10 from me. Cheers!
