The always trusty Putumayo label offers an 11-track introduction to this venerable art form, and features an impressive list of players, including the Dirty Dozen Brass Band (with Dr. John), Bob French, and Kermit Ruffins, among others. The music of brass bands is by and large festive, even when being used to "celebrate" the passing from this life to another, a notion beautifully exemplified by John Boutte's jubilant rendition of the spiritual "I'll Fly Away."   Technical Info Release Date : 10/23/2007 Original Release Date : 2007 Catalog ID : 270 Label : Putumayo Number of Discs : 1 Studio/Live : Studio Mono/Stereo : Stereo SPAR Code : n/a UPC : 00790248027029   Professional Reviews Dirty Linen (pp.62-63) - "All 11 tracks are enjoyable....Brass truly is the headliner on this compilation, yet listeners are treated to a lot of lagniappe, with vocals on almost every song."    Related Videos Randy Jackson: Randy Jack...
