Description
New Orleans has a special place in the history of jazz, and The Dukes of Dixieland have a special place in the story of New Orleans. Continuing the success that Jasmine Records had with their first outing with the Dukes, 'The Fabulous Sound Of...', they have selected in chorological order the next four LPs that were issued on the AFSD record label.
The repertoire on the first album includes selections such as "Swanee River", "Dinah", "Bill Bailey Won't You Please Come Home" and the seminal "Alexander's Ragtime Band". The next set of selections find the Dukes in the full Mardi Gras spirit, listen to them on "Panama Rag", "If I Ever Cease To Love", "Loveless Love" and "Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans?" the theme song of The Dukes Of Dixieland, which is presented here in its entirety.
