O’s Notes: Clarinetist Dr. Michael White takes us on a retro experience to the early 20th century. The music has an energetic, Dixie swing and New Orleans groove. We really enjoyed the sultry take of “Summertime”, one of five gems giving us a peak of yesteryear. It’s vinyl-length, 39 minutes! They wrap the set with the truly appropriate “Give It Up Gypsy Second Line” and truly enjoy it.
