[Dixielandjazz] Baby Dodds

[john petters]

Hi Brian
I'm listening to the Blesch session now and on Eccentric listen for Baby's
ride behind the trombone. This a really great session with all the
performers at their peak.

As a guide to how good bass players can sound - unamplified - even on
relatively primitively recorded sources try Pops Foster with the "This Is
Jazz" series on Jazzology. Baby Dodds on the same series is also an object
lesson - no ride cymbal - no hi hat but superb driving rhythm and wonderful
press rolls. Vol 4 tracks 15 & 16 with Bechet are particularly impressive.
