Although New Orleans jazz would make a major comeback in the early '60s with the establishment of Preservation Hall, the music was also well recorded during the previous decade. Some of the more technically skilled players based in New Orleans are featured on this excellent reissue, which has four sessions that include clarinetist Raymond Burke. The first four numbers have trumpeter Thomas Jefferson in prime form both playing and (in two cases) singing. The top-notch sextet also features the Jack Teagarden-influenced trombonist Jack Delaney. The next four numbers have a similar group, except with Alvin Alcorn in Jefferson's place. This is some of Alcorn's best work after leaving the Kid Ory band, particularly his lyrical trumpet playing on "Over the Waves" and "Who's Sorry Now?" Six selections are by "the Dog and His Patients," which is a two-clarinet group with Burke and Harry Shields being joined by a rhythm section with at least two guitarist/banjoists. Bassist Sherwood Mangiapane takes two vocals, pianist Jeanette Kimball has one ("Somebody Else Is Taking My Place"), and Blue Lu Barker is fine on two. The last three numbers showcase a group (led by cornetist Johnny Wiggs) on which Edmond Souchon (on banjo, guitar, and vocals) is pretty prominent. None of the 17 concise selections are throwaways, and on a whole they show how viable the New Orleans jazz scene was in 1957. Highly recommended to fans of the idiom.

Raymond Burke
Active Decades: '40s, '50s, '60s and '70s
Born: Jun 06, 1904

Genre: Jazz
Styles: Dixieland, New Orleans Jazz
Raymond Burke had a long career and was considered a reliable player in his native New Orleans where he spent virtually his entire career except for a brief period in the late 1930's when he was in Kansas City. Although three of his uncles played music, Burke was entirely self-taught. He became a professional musician around 1920 and played with Blind Gilbert's band in the mid-1920's and Henry Walde's Melon Pickers the following decade. Among his many musical associations during the following decades were Sharkey Bonano, Johnny Wiggs, George Hartman, Wooden Joe Nicholas, the Dukes of Dixieland, George Girard, Johnny St. Cyr, Punch Miller and Kid Thomas Valentine. Burke, who frequently led his own bands, was a fixture at Preservation Hall after it opened in 1960 and he remained active (and a local legend) into the mid-1980's. Raymond Burke recorded some isolated titles early on (including "Solitude" in 1937) and led albums for NOR (1949), Paramount (1952), Southland (1953 & 1960), Land O' Jazz (1975), 504 (1979) and Smoky Mary (1983). Among his sidemen on those recordings were Wooden Joe Nicholas, Johnny St. Cyr, Johnny Wiggs, Alvin Alcorn, Thomas Jefferson and Butch Thompson.
