Description
Drawn from three albums for Delmark and GHB, these records capture this classic trad band at its peak . . originating as a campus band at Purdue in the late 1940's, the Salty Dogs became the Original Salty Dogs by the mid 1950's and were one of the top two or three groups in the genre for decades. Here, Lew Green (cornet), Jim Snyder (trombone), Kim Cusack (clarinet and alto), John Cooper (piano), Bob Sundstrom (banjo and vocals), Mike Walbridge (tuba) and Wayne Jones (drums) show how to reinterpret classic jazz.
