Rabshakeh Posted April 5 Report Posted April 5 (edited) Pete Fountain – Pete Fountain's New Orleans I've been pretty deep in the weeds with this stuff over the last week. The kind of Dixieland that fills the bins: Fountain, Hirt, the Dukes, Hunt, etc. This one is perfectly pleasant, if not something I am likely to think about ever again. Most of these records haven't reached that kind of height. Now on to: Lawrence Welk And His Dixieland Boys – Lawrence Welk Plays Dixieland Another Pete Fountain. This one is actually not bad at all. A nice raggedness to it. Edited April 5 by Rabshakeh Quote

The only thing I remember off of it is Jack Sperling's drumming on "Saints". That a snappy little business that I return to once a decade or so. Quote

Jack Sperling does a good job on the record. Not a good job playing classic jazz: he comes across quite modern. That's one thing I enjoyed. Quote
