Panama Rag - New Orleans Stompers 

Shaye sounding excellent as ever. And might I say looking great.

Note how Shaye provides the trombone part to round out the traditional front line. Clever and talented .

The beauty of this band is they work together so well. yes, the clarinetist is a thrill. She is mastering her instrument. And if this ain't Ragtime my 50 years of playin' were misled. It's the body, babe.

The way they blend harmony of the trumpet and clarinet is wonderful

Meryci pour ce standard qui me rend vraiment envie de rejouer en band

Makiko, I love it.

So harmonic ,so well played .It is just like down to earth music.

Thank you. Its great to know our music is in safe young hands. Just a small tip is to listen to the chords changing instead of reading. But it will come with time :) (My first gig was also in a café in 1958 and you sound far better than we did then)

I wondered how good the piano player might be, as during most of the song, she is simply playing repetitive chords. Then she played her solo and proved she can hold her own with the others in this group. I love this group, and especially the playing of Tamura Makiko.

I have already become almost addicted to that superb trumpet sound of Kato Shinichi. On the other hand, I have a thought that if there is something that the whole of Japan is to be the most widely known by over the years to come, then it is that magnificent clarinet girl Tamura Makiko.

Shaye Cohn　・・・「語り」がありますね。

Kato ! You Trumpet is defekt .

すごい！あのTuba Skinny のShaye Cohn　とジョイントしてたんだ、 どういういきさつでジョイントできたのだろう？　驚きました。

The tune is not called Panama Rag, (wiritten by W.H. Tyres) just Panama. Panama Rag is a Ragtime tune.

Cari dove prendo un vostro cd

Cuidado con los japoneses...todo lo imitan pero, finalmente, terminan haciéndolo mucho mejor. En unos años más, tendremos a la TOYOTA JAZZ BAND tocando en New Orleans y nada menos que en el mismísimo Preservation Hall.
