Old-time Chicago style Dixieland-to-swing veterans Lew Green and Joe Muranyi have traveled extensively in Europe and the U.S., playing their classic vintage traditional jazz for appreciative audiences. With this recording, these American musicians were afforded the opportunity to play together in a sextet of like-minded players. The repertoire is pure nostalgic jazz, spanning rag, New Orleans to Chi-Town swing, show tunes, and two of Muranyi`s originals. Another triumphant early period modern recording for the Arbors label, and thankfully a wonderful pairing of unsung jazz heroes Green and Muranyi, this studio date will hopefully be the first such offering -- a live in-concert session would be the next logical step.
