Red Hook Ramblers<\/strong> – a Brooklyn based Dixieland band – played live in this show – some really great dixieland music. You can download this as a podcast, as mp3 or listen to it as streaming audio.<\/p>\nThe Antique Phonograph Music Program is a weekly show with original music played from Edison cylinders and 78 records on original phonographs – but from time to time there are visitors to the show like the Red Hook Ramblers who play music live or talk about the old records with the host Mac.<\/p>\n
On the Red Hok Ramblers’<\/strong> homepage I have found the following information:<\/p>\nOriginating in one of Brooklyn’s oldest seaside neighborhoods, the The Red Hook Ramblers were formed in 2005 by friends who share a passion for classic jazz. Over several months, the group’s performances built out from kitchen jams to regular gigs at Sunny’s Bar, Red Hook’s famous mariner’s haunt, and their repertoire came to encompass a wide range of early jazz songs and styles, learned by studying recordings dating from the 1890s to the late 1930s. Blues, ragtime, spirituals, New Orleans ensemble playing, Chicago-style soloing, and a number of New York’s Tin Pan Alley and Harlem “jungle” tunes all mixed in to make the Red Hook Ramblers an “all-things traditional jazz” unit.<\/p>\n
