Inside Straight - The Dirty Dozen Brass Band
As a fan of the Hot 8 Brass Band I was intrigued to come across a CD from an outfit called The Dirty Dozen Brass Band who seemed to offer a similarly funky take on all things brass a full 6 years before the Hot 8 blew their first tune. After a little digging I discovered that they'd actually been funking things up since 1977, surely making them Hot 8 Brass Bands spiritual grandpas. Here's just one track from The New Orleans album which can probably pick up from eBay for a couple of quid (yep, just checked...it can). Enjoy!
PS: Ever heard Hot 8 Brass Band's awesome cover of Love Will Tear Us Apart? Voila...
