Two albums of hard-to-find de Paris music are brought together on this compact disc. Blues shouter Jimmy Witherspoon joins De Paris on the first selection, while De Paris shines in a selection of Cole Porter tunes he plays with Dixieland zest.
Jazz trombonist Wilbur DeParis is featured on two separate dates originally released on the Atlantic label in the late '50s, reissued together for the first time by Collectables in 2000. Wilbur DeParis Plays Cole Porter contains DeParis' ten handpicked favorite Porter compositions including "Love for Sale," "I've Got You Under My Skin," and "I Get a Kick Out of You." While this 1958 session is enjoyable, it occasionally suffers from a timid reverence for the material. Even though DeParis is joined by brother Sidney DeParis on cornet, Doc Cheatham on trumpet, and Omer Simeon on clarinet, they can't seem to stoke up the fire unfortunately missing from this date. On the other hand, Wilbur DeParis Plays and Jimmy Witherspoon Sings New Orleans Blues achieves the opposite effect, finding all involved in their element. Originally released in 1957, vocalist Witherspoon's Jimmy Rushing approach tackles beloved Crescent City standards including "'Tain't Nobody's Bizness if I Do," "Trouble in Mind," and "St. Louis Blues," played by musicians (including both DeParis brothers, Omer Simeon, and pianist Sonny White) who breathe new life into material they know inside and out.

Wilbur DeParis
Active Decades: '20s, '30s, '40s, '50s and '60s

Wilbur DeParis, an adequate soloist, was an excellent ensemble player and an important bandleader who helped keep New Orleans jazz alive in the 1950s. He started out on alto horn and in 1922 played C-melody sax while working with A.J. Piron before switching permanently to trombone. In 1925, DeParis led a band in Philadelphia and then had stints in the orchestras of Leroy Smith (1928), Dave Nelson, Noble Sissle, Edgar Hayes, Teddy Hill (1936-1937), the Mills Blue Rhythm Band, and Louis Armstrong (1937-1940). Not as well-known as his brother, the talented trumpet soloist Sidney DeParis, Wilbur was with Roy Eldridge's big band and Duke Ellington (1945-1947) and recorded with Sidney Bechet during 1949-1950. However, it was in 1951 when he put together a band to play at Ryan's that included his brother and clarinetist Omer Simeon that he found his niche. Wilbur DeParis' New New Orleans Jazz Band did not just play Dixieland standards but marches, pop tunes, and hymns, all turned into swinging and spirited jazz. Throughout the 1950s, the group recorded consistently exciting sets for Atlantic (all of which are unfortunately long out of print) and they were the resident band at Ryan's during 1951-1962, touring Africa in 1957. DeParis continued leading bands up until his death, but his last recordings were in 1961.
