[Dixielandjazz] Matt Weiner & Del Ray

[Allan Brown]

You're absolutely correct Ron. 

Ory is credited on the link below, and I imagine these notes are from the album/ CD sleeve.

All the best,

Hollywood's Emerald City Bull Fiddle (Ory's Creole Trombone)
(Edward 'Kid' Ory, Bug Music OBO Slick Tongue Ory Music)
Matt and Del worked out this arrangement back in the Yes Yes Boys, but weren't able to record it until now. Its based on a couple of old recordings. 
Matt plays the role of Kid Ory, and Del plays the roles of everybody else.
