CD Reviews

Another great Eddie Condon "Twofer"!

David F. Donahue | Buffalo, Wyoming, USA | 03/09/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

""Bixieland" has always been one of my favorite Condon albums because you can tell that the musicians, who knew and respected Bix Beiderbecke, are making a heart-felt tribute to their friend.
The music is reminiscent of Bix's recordings, but it still is Eddie Condon and his great group: Cutty Cutshall, Dick Carey, Ed Hall, Gene Schroeder, Walter Paige, George Wettling, Pete Pesci & Condon, himself. I only saw Eddie and his group twice. The first time was in 1956 at the first Newport Jazz Festival when His Group and Louis Armstong's group played in a torrential downpour. It was at this session Eddie made his somewhat immortal comment, "We play 'Modern' Dixieland". The second time was in early 1958 in New York at "Condons" before the venue changed premises. Man, it was good stuff to listen to then...and still is. Get this CD. You'll be glad you did."

Wonderful Music

"Terrific traditional Chicago-style jazz from Eddie and his crew. Played without pandering to nostagia, but approached on its own terms, with verve and genuine feeling."
