Your Father's Moustache in Hi-Fi (San Francisco M-33002 - 1955) - Albert White & Gaslight Orchestra

During the era of Honky-Tonk Piano and early Rock and Roll, both of which were running wild in jukeboxes and on the airwaves, this unique and singular (for the time) album came along and shifted the discussion to what a real ragtime orchestra was back in "the day." Albert White assembled some of San Francisco's finest instrumentalists, and using authentic period scores created this wonderful pastiche of tunes from the 1890s to the 1920s using an authentic non-Dixieland Jazz ensemble, sparkling with elegance and, for the time, crystal clear sound. At a full 45 minutes it will certainly be a repeatable experience for any lover of old-time American music. 00:00 What D'ye Mean You Lost Your Dog? 01:58 The Plunger - Galop 03:42 Everybody's Doin' It Now 06:20 Tickle the Ivories 08:19 Old Timer's Waltz (Waltz Medley) 12:52 Jiggle Reel (Jigglereel) 14:27 Mr. Thomas Cat 17:20 Lassus Trombone 19:50 Yah Yah Laugh (The Black Laugh) 22:21 Alexander's Ragtime Band 24:18 Kutschke Polka 26:17 Cycle Whirl 28:27 The Squirrel 31:08 (There'll Be) A Hot Time in the Old Town 33:42 Good Old Timers (Waltz Medley) 37:30 Silverheels - Indian Intermezzo 40:07 Razzazza Mazzazza 42:46 Flying Arrow
