Summary

[edit]
Description
English: California Ramblers put out hundreds of records under a smokescreen of pseudonyms across a wide spectrum of labels. But their primary label from late 1923 onward under the California Ramblers moniker was Columbia.

While they recorded a few sides with Columbia in 1922, the relationship came to a head in the summer of 1923, when the Ramblers recorded five sessions for Columbia that resulted in seven sides that sold quite well - including this one, an energetic arrangement of Irving Caesar's "Louisville".

It features fine ensemble playing and solos - including some doo-wacka-doo-ing starting at 1:08, punctuated by Adrian Rollini's hot breaks on the bass sax.

Based on the success of these records, in November of 1923, Ed Kirkleby signed an exclusive artist agreement with Columbia on behalf of the Ramblers. After this agreement, only Columbia could use the name "California Ramblers". While they could record for other labels - they just could not use that name.

Recorded in New York City on August 8, 1923. Released as Columbia A3979.
