[Dixielandjazz] Mobile Stomp

[ROBERT R. CALDER]

I've been a fan of this recording for over forty years. Al Morgan was a 
wonderful bassist. 

This was what Luis Russell brought to New York and it was the great rhythmic 
fertiliser. 

Jim Robinson's recordings carry something of the same thing, and it's 
regrettable that notions of the trumpet trombone and clarinet front line 
distracted from the possibilities which can be heard in the Sam Morgan 
recordings -- and indeed the serious achievement of the Morgan band and the 
other bands recorded in New Orleans --  brightened up my morning listening to 
this yet again.

Follow the link to hear the Mobile Stomp that was originally discussed. I still 
say it's wonderful (based on The waltz you saved for me)
