No use pretending...


As I'm sure I said in a previous post, most if not all Joe Haywood sides issued on New Orleans labels were recorded in NYC.

The arranger/producer on this cut, Larry Lucie, is considered by some to have been one of the great jazz guitar players and was for many years a well known bandleader/teacher in NYC. Lucie was with both Louis Armstrong's and Duke Ellington's bands during important periods for each. When he died last year at age 101, we lost the last of the musicians to have played with Jelly Roll Morton.

This one goes out to My Boy.....

Drop the bomb...
