5.0 out of 5 stars The Original Trombone King at his Best, March 7, 2001

This review is from: This Kid's the Greatest (Audio CD)

Swinging and full of life, this Kid Ory album is a little known classic. One of the original sidemen to Louis Armstrong's Hot Fives and Sevens, Ory here shows why he is the king of 'bone players, breaking into that old time, downhome New Orleans style that made him famous. Ory's interpretations of classics like "Creole Love Call," and "Bill Bailey" are memorable, as are his rarely heard vocal stylings. A great album, guaranteed to conjure thoughts of an era now long gone.
