Fist release in 1999.
There are pitifully few proven recordings by this legendary early New Orleans pioneer jazz cornettist, whose career started before World War I and who pre-dates the great King Oliver, so this CD is an irreplacable part of jazz history containing, as it does, his complete known recorded output. The "Penguin Guide to Jazz on CD" says: 'Retrieval edition is so well-mastered, more than any previous issue, this brings Keppard back to life'.
