5.0 out of 5 stars Only in New Orleans, October 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Main Event: Live at Maple Leaf (Audio CD)

The ressurgence of brass band music in New Orleans, a tradition deep-rooted in the culture of the city, came about with the Dirty Dozen. However, ReBirth has picked up where the Dozen left off and this album is the proof. Never before has any live album contained so much unconstrained funk and energy.This is not album you simply listen to with your ears, its an album you listen to with your entire body.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reliving the experience..., January 5, 2000

I was in New Orleans last week, and just happened to stumble across Rebirth in the Maple Leaf! Can you believe that a brass band can jam a jazz-like improvisation for 20 minutes? Rebirth can, and it's hypnotizing! Who would've guessed that a snare drum and a sousaphone could produce such a powerful rythym section... If you have a hunger for live music, then this CD is for you.

This is a great CD - a must have! The only better is seeing Rebirth play live at the Maple Leaf on Tuesday nights - a true NOLA tradition - eat next door at Jacque-IMOs to make it a perfect night of NOLA food and awesome NOLA music!
