As a native New Orleanian I've been blessed to follow Harry's career in person and on CD. (Did you know that Harry Connick, Sr. is the District Attorney of New Orleans and has a CD of his own?)

This is a phenomenal compilation of classic jazz for a young man who's talent is incredible even at age 11. Muskrat Ramble is perhaps my favorite classic jazz tune and Harry delivers with musical talent beyond his years.

I don't know how else to critique this kid except to say that tracks one through nine are no less wonderful than musicians far older and more established. Age aside, this a complete work of classic jazz art.

This is an album of good, old-fashioned dixieland standards played by a great group, with Harry Connick Jr. at the piano. Although he's only 11 years old, he plays some fun and creative solos, and in general, the CD is wonderful for all lovers of dixieland, and will put you in a good mood instantaneously. It's very up-beat, and fun to "groove" to! I really loved it!

Harry Connick Jr. recorded this album when he was 11 years old!!! Awesome! What a genius! His piano playing is excellent and his vocal fantastic! I definitely recommend this album to all Blues/Jazz music collectors and fans. Don't miss it.

If you love jazz and you dig Harry Connick....this is a must hav
