This CD from the French Vogue label has one of Barney Bigard's most exciting recordings. Teamed with fellow clarinetist Claude Luter and a fine French rhythm section, Bigard and Luter romp on two Sidney Bechet tunes, a variety of swing and dixieland standards (including "Struttin' With Some Barbecue," "Royal Garden Blues," "China Boy" and "S'Wonderful") and a pair of colorfully-titled originals ("Doo Boo Loo Blues" and two takes of "Double Gin Stomp"). The clarinetists really push and inspire each other and their ensemblework is consistently exciting. Well worth searching for. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide [-] Collapse
