Dukes of Dixieland Columbia recordings 1961, 62
Release Date:
The Dukes had a bad rap among jazz fans by 1961 . . their previous records had been stereotypical "dixieland" novelties with occasional good playing. These 1961/2 sessions feature the Assuntos (Frank, Fred and Jac) along with Jerry Fuller, Gene Schroeder, Jim Atlas, Charlie Lodice and either Jim Hall or Herb Ellis on guitar. Great mainstream dixieland with a vocal feature for Frank Assunto and a broad repertoire spanning dixieland, marches, contemporary Broadway tunes and a folk number or two.
