Description

Careless Love is a traditional song and known for several popular blues versions. It has been called a nineteenth-century ballad and Dixieland standard. A recording by Bessie Smith titled Careless Love Blues was very popular in 1925. The same year it was recorded by Papa Celestin and his Tuxedo Dixieland Jazz Band. New Orleans cornet soloist Chris Kelly was famous for his emotional rendition of the piece.

“This is joyous stuff; an intelligent, coherent crossover disc, performed with phenomenal punch. Brilliantly recorded too – what’s the point of assembling a collective of virtuoso brass players if they can’t make your ears bleed ?”

Graham Rickson

“The entire programme can be likened to a sumptuous feast, with each track having its own highly delectable and thoroughly satisfying flavour. The CD is surely compulsive listening for all brass and percussion enthusiasts.”
