Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Marsalis Music continues its limited edition Honors Series with a focus on the diverse styles encompassed by the vast tradition of New Orleans. Marsalis Music Honors Bob French places drummer and traditional jazz stalwart Bob French at the head of a band where some of the city's favorite sons (including Harry Connick, Jr. and producer Branford Marsalis) and new stars Kid Chocolate and Trombone Shorty enliven eleven jazz classics. The Honors Series, which has received a number of accolades (including a 10-Best pick in The New Yorker) for its focus on veteran artists who have not received their due in multi-generational ensembles, continues to feature the distinctive cover art of photographer Lou Jones.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Bob French, May 14, 2007
By M. Thompson (Columbus, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I frequently listen to Bob's radio show on WWOZ in New Orleans and I enjoy having a collection of his work. I especially appreciate "Bourbon Street Parade" and "When the Saints Go Marching In." He collected a great group of talented musicians for this CD and they all shine.

5.0 out of 5 stars New Orleans Jazz, May 12, 2007
By James C. Williams (San Augustine, TX) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This and the other Marsallis CDs based in New Orleans are great. They capture the spirit and sound of the New Orleans we all love, pre Katrina, and continuing the spirit.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Deal for jazz drummers, October 9, 2007
I've spent some time recently with John Riley's "Jazz Workshop" book. In it he has some examples of how second line drumming could fit into the vocabulary. It's great stuff. But if you really want the New Orleans flavor in your playing, check out Bob French. It's the real thing, and the taste can add a lot to your playing. Gotta love it!
