Customer Reviews:

2 out of 5 stars Misleading listing; not Ory and Oliver themselves.......2006-05-05

The Amazon listing for this item is quite misleading. While these are tunes made famous by King Oliver and Kid Ory, the present versions are all performed by British "trad jazz" revivalists like Chris Barber and Rod Mason. It would be better to list this under "various artists" instead of under Ory and Oliver's names.

That said, these recordings are pretty good and convey the spirit of the British "trad" movement. It's recommended if you like traditional jazz but aren't looking for the authentic 1920s recordings. However, some purists might be turned off by the obvious use of electric bass on some tracks.
