[Dixielandjazz] Horns on rags

[David Richoux]

Don't forget the Chrysanthemum Ragtime Band from San Francisco - long  
since disbanded, but they used to record on Stomp Off. I see a CD  
reissue at http://www.ragtime.nu/cds_chrysanthemum.htm but nothing  
about availability and nothing in the web Stomp Off Catalogue . They  
were really good and early in the 2nd wave of the Ragtime Revival (or  
was that the 3rd wave?) recording around 1985.

Look for used records - I'm not selling mine ;-)
