Most of the following of the Israeli New Orleans Function is very
young (when I'm there, at 70 I raise the average age to something like
27).  Nevertheless, Eli the leader not only always mentions the
titles, but often also who was famous for playing it.  I've never seen
anybody stop to dance and leave in disgust.
