The Black Diamond Blue Five takes its name from the Clarence Williams
Blue Five which featured Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet. This band
originated many of the trad jazz standards including "Cake Walkin'
Babies from Home." The Black Diamond Blue Five was organized in 1992 by
George Knoblauch, and features the direct engaging polyphony of a two
piece front line, and the stomping rhythms and bluesy pop jazz so
typical of the Clarence Williams Blue Five at its best.
Spacious Dance Floor. The lodge has Food and a Full Bar.
One month later, NVDJS will feature the Jazz City Jazz Band on
Sunday, November 12th, 2006 from 1-5 PM at the same location.
