The Audio Fidelity session was explicitly arranged as a loving tribute to his early mentor and former bandleader, Joe 'King' Oliver. Flanked by Peanuts Hucko and Trummy Young, the ensemble utilized pristine stereo recording technology to faithfully recreate the polyphonic joy of 1920s New Orleans jazz.
