NOTES: This is the first authentic recording of a New Orleans Black brass band that was active at the time of recording. Recorded in New Orleans on August 25, 1951 by Alden Ashforth and David Wyckoff. This compact disc is the best example of the music at a jazz funeral and it defines tradtional brass band music. It is played in unison and with great harmony and feeling. Check out Emanuel Paul's solo on West Lawn Dirge and Just A Closer Walk With Thee. Highly recommended.
