This recording was produced in New Orleans on March 7th 1927 featuring Louis Dumaine cornet, Earl Humprey trombone, Willie Joseph clarinet, Louis James tenor or c-melody sax, Morris Rouse piano, Leonard Mitchell banjo, Joe Howard tuba, and James Willigan drums.

*"Pretty Audrey" was composed by Eddie Jackson and Morris Rouse.

Kicking off the performance with heavy percussion which persists throughout Louis Dumaine is undoubtedly at his horn blowing best. Following the reed solo pianist and the tunes co-author Morris Rouse gets in on the action with a break of his own. In conclusion the ensemble come together for a finale that couldn't be grander if they tried.
