"From the opening trumpets glares of Bogalusa Strut to the old style melancholy snare of Bucket's Got A Hole In It, Ruffins hits all the notes. His fun, entertaining, traditional New Orleans style jazz playing borders a young Louis Armstrong. After seeing him at Jazz Fest a few years back I bought this CD. It is still one of my favorite's. Just click BUY and all your troubles will be washed away with Kermit and the Gang!!"
Like being at Jazz Fest

"I first hear Kermit at Jazzfest '99, where he played virtually this entire CD. Everytime I listen to it, I'm back in that huge, hot, tent! This disc is probably more for the trad jazz lover, with a little unexpected(like his daughter singing lead)."
