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 absolutely one of the finest and most creative brass ensembles in the world."

Marc Dickman
University of South Florida writing in the International Trombone Association Journal

“One of the all time great brass recordings OF ALL TIME”

Jiggs Whigham
International Jazz Trombone Soloist and Musical Director, BBC Big Band

“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.”

“This intriguing "water-borne" voyage runs the gamut from more classically-tinged interpretations to straight-ahead and improvised jazz. Along that journey we are treated to a highly inspired and masterfully presented performance.”
